Parent Pay
Parent Pay is our preferred method of accepting payments and we request that parents order and pay for their child’s school meals online via the Parent Pay website.
If you are not currently registered to use this site please contact the school office and we will arrange for an activation code to be sent to you.
If you have more than one child at a Parent Pay school/s you can add them to a single account, providing one login for all children at Parent Pay schools.
Support and resources for using ParentPay can be found here.
Allergy Advice & Information
As we are a no nut school, please ensure that peanuts, tree nuts or sesame are not listed in the ingredients of any products that you send into nursery or school, also that there is no warning of ‘may contain traces of /peanuts/tree nuts/sesame’ or ‘manufactured in a facility that handles peanuts/tree nuts’. Examples of tree nuts are almonds, pecans, walnuts, cashews etc.
Also we are a no pink-fleshed fish, crustaceans, seafood and any non-white fleshed fish school. As this is an on contact allergy (it does not have to be consumed to be affected), it can be affected by trace. We therefore ask that all parents/carers please do NOT send in any SALMON, PINK-FLESHED FISH, SHELLFISH OR ANY ITEMS THAT ‘MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF’ ANY OF THE ABOVE, INCLUDING ITEMS CONTAINING FISH OIL EG SOME SOY SAUCES ETC for your child’s lunch. The allergy does not include white fish and tuna so these items will continue to be on school menus and can continue to be brought in for packed lunches. The warning may vary between manufacturers but they will identify if there is a risk that the food product contains known allergens. If there is no warning on the ingredients label and the above allergens are not listed then you may send the food item for your child.
