Spring/ Summer lunch menu Menu and prices

Welcome to the spring/ summer menu, this menu will run from after the Easter holidays until the October break. This menu offers a few new dishes to try, such as the Wallace and Gromit pasta, as well as all the usual favourites! We piloted the backed potato option last session. We have had lots of positive feedback from pupils, parents and school staff. As it has been a popular addition we have decided to keep it on the menu. All our menus comply with the Schools (Health promotion and nutrition) (Scotland) Act 2007 and are nutritionally analysed so you can be sure healthy choices are on offer at lunch times. Thank you to everyone who contacted us about school meals, your comments are welcome and help us continue to improve the service. The cost of a primary school meal is 1.75. For this price your child can have a two course meal either soup and a hot main meal, or a hot main and a pudding plus vegetables/ salad and bread. A drink is also provided with the meal

Special diets and allergies

Please let your school know if your child has any special dietary needs.
