School meals
Cooked dinners
Children at All Saints' enjoy the opportunity of having healthy fresh-cooked meals made from fresh ingredients, everyday. The food tastes great, because it is great. It’s great thanks to strong partnerships with our trusted suppliers; we know them, which means we can trace our food from farm to fork. It’s great, because food really does taste better when it’s in season, sustainably sourced and thoughtfully produced. Our dinners are provided by Caterlink and Kelly, the cook, knows the children's preferences and will also cater for those who have particular needs or dietary requirements.
School dinners are free to all children.

Packed Lunches
Some children prefer to have a packed lunch instead of a hot, cooked dinner. We ask that parents send in a healthy balanced
packed lunch.
Sweets and fizzy drinks are not allowed. Most importantly, nuts and nut products are banned, as we have some children who
can suffer severe allergic reactions.
This also applies to packed lunches for educational visits.
