School Meals and Healthy Snack
School Meals at Blackrod Primary
Children are able to select their School lunch when they come into class at the start of the day. There are pictures to help them make their choices. Dietary requirements stored on your child's records allows the system to provide them with choices that meet their dietary requirements.
Children in Picasso, Milhazes, Van Gogh and Gauguin classes are entitled to Universal Infant Free School Meals, a scheme which provides funding for schools to offer free school meals to children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. (See Link below for further information)
When children move to Key Stage 2 (Kahlo-Mackintosh classes), school meals are to be paid for by parents. (See link below for further information)

We ask that children are provided with a healthy and nutritionally balanced packed lunch. For health and safety reasons, children must not have flasks/insulated containers which contain warm food.
Packed lunches must be sent to school in a secure container or lunch box.
