About our school
School Dinners at HPS
We have partnered with a catering company called Lunchtime, who provide all of our school meals. They provide healthy and varied meal choices for the children to keep them fuelled through the day.
We use a system where the children can order their main course at the beginning of the day. They have the chance to discuss the menu with their teacher, and pictures are available to help them choose. There is a 3-week rolling menu with 4 options available every day.
- A hot cooked meal, meat based.
- A hot cooked meal, plant based.
- The pasta or baked potato option.
- The “Lunchtime Lunchbox” (this may include rolls, wraps or sandwiches, salad sticks, fresh fruit, and pudding).
The children are then be given a coloured wristband to wear showing their meal choice, for example a red band for the meat-based option. We hope this helps to reduce food waste, speed up the lunch service and also help ensure that children receive their preferred choice of meal.
Children bringing a packed lunch from home are not given a wristband and go into lunch in the usual way.
The cost of a school lunch is £2.60.
If your child is entitled to Free School Meals, they will receive a free lunch.
Don’t forget… All children in years Reception, 1 and 2 are entitled to a Universal Infant Free School Meal – this means that there is no charge to you as parents and we would really encourage the children to have the school meal.
