Lunch Time at High View
We operate a cafeteria system at lunchtime. Children can choose either a hot meal, a grab-a-bag (sandwiches, drink and a snack), jacket potato and filling, or cold salad selection. A pudding is also provided. A new menu is published each term and they feature a three week rolling programme.
At present we are operating on a split dinner option in order to allow all children in school to have a hot dinner.
FS2 children have the option of hot dinners every week due to the fact that they need to access the dining hall to eat lunch.
The rest of school are on a fortnightly rota to allow them to have the option of a hot lunch one a fortnight. This runs with Y1, Y3 and Y5 one week with Y2, Y4 and Y6 the alternate week.
