The Government introduced Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM) in September, 2014. All pupils in Reception and Years 1&2 are entitled to these. We regularly upgrade our facilities in order to enhance provision for the pupils and provide a varied, nutritionally balanced menu. Message from Ashley Hi! I’m Ashley McKie the cook at St Benedict’s Catholic Primary School and my Assistant is called Amber Albiston. We provide your children with a nutritionally well-balanced healthy meals. All of our menus are devised with the help of dieticians and they follow Government guidelines. We aim to offer all home-made dishes, from main courses to desserts, with extra portions of healthy salad and a slice of bread. The children can choose from a wide selection of meals each day. If any child has a specific dietary need we will do our best to cater for that child. At morning break, we offer a variety of snacks for sale to Years 1 to 6 including toast, crumpets, teacakes, bags of sultanas, fruit juice and cartons of milk. We provide the Reception class with a selection of fruit & vegetables and a cup of milk each day, free of charge. On Fridays we have a ‘Special’ day when children who normally bring their own packed lunch can opt for a school meal instead. We provide special menus for key school events such as St Benedict’s feast day and Christmas. I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all the pupils of St Benedict’s for making my job really enjoyable and most rewarding. School meals – healthy eating standards – GOV.UK |
