At Thomas Arnold Primary School, school meals are cooked from fresh ingredients, on-site, everyday. Included with every school meal is an unlimited freshly made salad bar.
The cost of school meals is £2.60 per day. At present, due to the Mayors Free School Meal initiative, all pupils from Reception to Year 6 will be provided with a free school meal.
As a school we recognise the diverse school community and we are pleased to inform you that we cater for Halal and Vegetarian dietary requirements, for more information please contact the school office.
Please see below the School Lunch Menu for this term.
We encourage parents to provide healthy well-balanced packed lunches.
For children aged 5 years and above, preparing a healthy well-balanced child’s lunchbox, includes: starchy foods – these are bread, rice, potatoes, pasta etc, protein foods – including meat, fish, eggs, beans etc, a dairy item – this could be cheese or yoghurt, vegetables or salad, a portion of fruit and a healthy drink such as water or milk.
