Our Services to Schools Team provides schools across Newcastle with a wide range of nutritionally well-balanced school meals. The daily choices on our menus mean that there will always be something on the menu your child will enjoy.
We carefully develop all our menus in line with the School Food Plan. These are mandatory standards from the Department for Education, to help school catering teams to create menus that are imaginative, and nutritious. You can view more information on the School Food Plan website.
School dinners provide a healthy, nutritious and tasty meal - a daily selection of freshly cooked main meals and desserts, fresh fruit or yoghurt and salads.
Please pay for your weekly school meals on a Monday morning using IRIS ParentMail.

If you are on Income Support or receive certain other benefits and your child is in school on a full-time basis you are entitled to free school meals.

- guarantees that your child will get a hot, nutritious meal at lunch time to keep them going until home time.
