Lunch and Snacks

Here’s everything you need to know about school lunches, packed lunches and snacks at Weston Park Primary School.

School lunches

From September 2022 Dolce School Catering will be providing hot meals to Weston Park Primary each day. The children have a daily choice of four options.

Full details about the menu options are available here

All meals must be ordered and paid for in advance. We encourage all parents and carers to pay online. To register for our online payments system please contact the school office.

If you choose to pay in cash, dinner money should be handed in at the school office on a Monday morning in an envelope clearly labelled to show your child’s name, class, the days on which dinner is required and the amount enclosed.

The school cannot provide a hot school lunch unless payment is received in advance. If payment is not received in advance parents and carers will be asked to provide their child with a packed lunch.

Packed lunch

Please do not send nuts or nut products to school as some children have a very severe allergic reaction.

The school funds the provision of a drink of milk at morning break time for pupils who are aged under five and pupils who are eligible for free school meals.
