School Dinners
School Dinners are £3.20 per day, and can be paid for in advance either at the school office or online, once an account has been set up. Any child that has a value debt of 5 days or more will not be allowed to order any dinners until the debt has been cleared.
There is a daily choice of a “red”, “green”(Vegetarian) or “blue” option. In the winter months the blue option is a jacket potato with various fillings and in the spring and summer blue is a picnic lunch. Menus are available to view on the HC3S website:

Please note that if the diet is due to health reasons, your child may not be able to have a school meal until the menu has been finalised from HC3S: Hampshire County Council who provide our school meals.
