School meals promote good habits in healthy eating and contribute to a positive lifestyle for our children. They currently cost £2.30 and are cooked on the premises. They are of a high standard and sample menus are sent home and are available to collect in school. Meals can be purchased from the Canteen on a weekly or daily basis.
All P1 – P3 pupils are now entitled to a free school meal.
Parents who are receiving Income Support or Income Based Job Seekers Allowance are entitled to apply for free school meals for their children in P4 – P7. The appropriate forms are available from the school office.
Facilities are available for children to eat packed lunches in school. It should be noted however that under no circumstances should fizzy drinks, glass bottles, drinks cans or hot liquids be brought to school – for obvious safety reasons.
All Highland Primary Schools have been awarded the bronze Food for Life Catering Mark, for more information on school meals and to view school meal menus please visit – www.highland.gov.uk
