NB – If your child/children are entitled to FSM’s or UIFSM’s please select ‘FSM/UIFSM – (school name)’ from the list. If you have a child entitled to FSM/UIFSM, and also a child/children whose meals will be paid for, please select both catalogues containing the relevant school name from the list.

Ordering Meals

Menus will be available for the full term ahead and you are free to order meals for a week or the entire term at a time, however please note the deadline for meal orders for the following week will be each Monday at midnight. After this deadline the menus for that week will be taken down and you will be unable to order meals for that period.

To order meals, enter the week/s menu, for which you would like to place your order and select your meals from the drop down box. If you do not require a meal on a specific day, please select ‘no meal required’. Once your selections are complete, select your child’s name then select ‘add to basket’. When ordering meals for more than one child, repeat this process, selecting the name of your child with each order. It is very important to ensure a child’s name is selected on every order placed.

To finalise your order select ‘View Cart’ shown at the top of the page, check the details of the order and select ‘Check Out’.

Paid Meals

If you are processing an order as a paying parent, please directly proceed to make your payment via ‘PayPal’.

To complete the process, please select ‘Submit Order’ and make a payment using your existing account or credit/debit card details.
