School Dinners

At the start of the Autumn Term 2024, our new catering supplier will be Dolce. Dolce is a family run, third generation caterer who is passionate about creating healthy home-cooked meals.

As part of the change, school meals will no longer be ordered in school, ALL parents/carers will need to pre-order their children(s) meals online. This will be done by logging onto to SchoolGrid, a web-based platform, that enables parents to preorder their child’s lunch at home. By accessing SchoolGrid online you will be able to pre-order meals, make payments, view recipes, allergens and ingredients. If you have not received a welcome email from SchoolGrid please contact SchoolGrid on 01506 300310 or contact the school office.

Please note ALL children’s meals will need to be pre-ordered, regardless of whether your child is in Foundation, Year 1 & 2 (Universal Free School Meals) or are in receipt of Free School Meals.

The cut off for ordering from home is 8.55am, the school office will only be able to place orders for late arrivals up until 10.30am that day. However, if a child arrives after this time and a pre-order has not been made, they will be offered a cheese sandwich, unless a home packed lunch has been provided

For those children who have an food allergy, we ask parents/carers to contact the Dolce team on number 01942 707709 and select option 1. They will work with you to ensure that the menu provided, meets the requirements for your child. All dietary requirements (i.e Halal, Vegetarian, No Pork etc ) will automatically be added by the school.

Further information regarding this can be found in the Ordering Guide and the Dolce Welcome Letter.

The cost for a school meal from August will be £2.65.
