School Meals

SCHOOL MEAL PAYMENTS

In line with Surrey County Council’s guidelines, school meals are paid termly in advance. A notice is emailed to parents detailing the amount due at the end of the preceding term.

Parents are notified when Reception children are able to have a school meal trial.

The notice period for changing from school meals/packed lunch is as follows. As long as written notice is received by the office before any break for holidays (either half-term or longer holiday) the change can be effective at the start of the new half-term or term. If notice is received at the beginning of a new half-term or term the change will not be effective until after the next holiday.
