School Meals
SCHOOL LUNCH MENUS
Our school lunch menus have been updated and are being served from September 2023. These menus have been developed in partnership with Diamond Hall Junior Academy, who have worked closely with children, parents and community partners to ensure we are offering healthy, nutritional and balanced meal each day which includes a delicious hot meal and dessert. The new menu encompasses some of our pupils’ favourite foods along with some new meals to try.
