Week 3

 

Tonge Moor Primary School operates a staggered lunchtime.

Food and diet is one aspect of a healthy school.  If your child stays for lunch, they have a choice of menu, which includes a vegetarian option.

The Standard menu features:

  • Choice of main course including a vegetarian option or filled baked potato (V).
  • A selection of fresh local vegetables and salad to accompany any main course.
  • Dessert.
 

Fresh water is available throughout lunch

Meals are eaten in the dining hall.

The cost of a school meal for children in full time Nursery and Years 3-6 is £2.65 per day/£13.25 per week.

We are happy to accept payment in advance for the week, month, half term or term. This should be paid using the My Child at School (MCAS) App.

Children in Reception to Year 2 automatically receive a free school meal under the Universal Infant Free School Meals scheme.

It is important that you notify the Admin team of any changes to your child’s daily meal options via telephone on 01204 328994 or email office@tongemooracademy.org to avoid any unnecessary dinner money debt reminders from the Finance team. Any changes for meal options are to be given 1 week in advance.

Free School Meals

Free school meals are available to some children according to family income. It’s important to register for entitlement to free school meals, even if your child has a packed lunch – this is so we can receive additional funding (called Pupil Premium) which we can use to help your child.

By receiving free school meals, you can save up to £400 a year and ensure your child is eating a healthy, balanced meal every day.

Packed Lunches

 

Alternatively, children may bring a packed lunch. This should be in a secure named container. A drink should be provided in a non-breakable container.

Packed lunches are eaten in the main hall.

We ask parents/carers to not include anything containing nuts or may contain nuts, as we are a nut-free school. Also, please do not include sweets, chocolate or fizzy drinks – instead, we encourage lots of fruit, vegetables and water.

Please contact the school office if you have any queries regarding school lunchtime arrangements.

 

School Snacks

Your child can bring fresh fruit or vegetables for a mid-morning snack. Nursery, Reception and KS1 children are provided with a snack of this kind each day, free of charge.

Toast is also available on a Friday for children in Year 1-6 at a cost of 20p per slice.
