Gilbert Colvin Primary School

School Dinners

Our meals are cooked onsite by our catering partners, ISS. We offer nutritious options, catering for different dietary needs and tastes.  All meals meet the School Food Standards, helping children to develop healthy eating habits. There is also a salad bar with lots of fresh options for children to choose from.  Children are expected to eat with a knife and fork.

You can apply for Free School Meals here.  Children can choose to have a packed lunch or a school meal on a day by day basis.

Packed Lunches

Some families prefer to bring their own lunches. In order to keep everyone safe we ask that nuts and nut products are avoided. We expect children to have nutritious food which will give them the energy they need for a busy afternoon in school. Fizzy drinks are not permitted, we expect children to have at least one portion of fruit or vegetables.
