School Lunches – Acton Gardens Primary School

School Dinners

We use a catering company (ISS) who provide freshly cooked hot meals on-site. There is a range of options including a vegetarian, salad bar and fruit.

All primary school aged children can now have a free school lunch every day.

Packed Lunch

If your child brings a packed lunch to eat in school, it should be a balanced lunch and should contain at least one item from each of the following categories:

Starchy foods: These are bread, rice, potatoes, pasta and others
Protein foods: These are meat, fish, eggs, beans and others
A dairy item: This could be cheese or a yoghurt
Vegetables or salad and a portion of fruit.

Please ensure that nuts, chocolate or fizzy drinks are not included in your child’s lunch; only water is permitted.
