🧒 Nursery Meals

Children in Nursery are not covered by the government’s free meals scheme. However, they are welcome to stay for lunch if they attend full-time.

  • Bringing a packed lunch from home: £3.00 per day

  • Having a school-provided hot meal: £5.00 per day

Please contact the school office to book or arrange payment.


🍴 Allergies & Special Diets

We can cater for:

  • Food allergies and intolerances

  • Cultural or religious dietary needs

If your child has a specific requirement, let us know so we can work with Aspens to provide a safe and suitable meal.
