Our school meals are provided in-house.
Our catering team’s aim is to ensure healthy eating for all pupils through the provision of a well balanced school lunch, served in a warm, welcoming dining environment.
All school meals meet government nutritional standards however we do have greater freedom over menu choices. We aim to, in consultation with both parents and pupils, offer what students at Meadowdale would like to eat and will devise menu options based on the needs and wants of our customers, the pupils!
Meals are available at a cost of £2.30 for a main meal and dessert; and £2.36 for a main meal, dessert and glass of juice. The weekly cost is £11.50, although ‘extras’ are available. Please ensure your child’s lunch account is up to date as we can no longer have debts on the lunch account.
We know how important it is to create the good eating habits that can last a lifetime, and teach children about the importance to not only their physical well being but how food can affect their mood, temperament and energy levels.
Free School Meals
Any child may qualify for a free school meal if you receive Universal Credit (from September 2026, all children in households receiving Universal Credit are eligible for free school meals, regardless of earnings).
You can register your child for free school meals here.
Specific Dietary Needs
If your child has a food allergy and/or specific dietary need then we are able to cater for them. Please contact the school office for further information.
