12.01.2022 Edit - tap the ‘send message’ button near the top of this page to tell us you are interested in this as we are seeing what the interest is for now. The school is doing at least 70 less meals than normal. We are looking into the possibility of students who have recess & lunch payments set up automatically, still being able to access a nutritious recess and lunch whilst not at school. This would be a delivery service with recess & lunch delivered at the same time. If this applies to your children, send us a message or you can comment below and we will make contact. Also tag anyone who this may apply to.
