Hurdsfield's School Meal Menu

Children who eat a balanced, healthy diet are more likely to be alert in class and have more energy to enjoy an active lifestyle.  This is why school meals are so important!

 

Why have a school meal?

When children are hungry – when any of us are hungry for that matter – and blood sugar levels drop, tempers flare, we all become less tolerant and tend to be more emotional.  A proper hot, nutritionally balanced meal in the middle of the day will nourish them and top up their blood sugar levels for longer, helping children to stay calm and behave better.

 

We believe that...

  • A healthy, well balanced meal is proven to give them the slow release energy they need to stay focused and learn effectively.
  • A well balanced meal at school can provide so much of the good nutrients our bodies and minds need to grow and develop.
  • By introducing healthy eating habits early on, we believe we can reduce the chances of them having poor diets later on in life, reducing the risk of diet related diseases.

 

 

Mellors Catering launches new menus for Hurdsfield from Monday 4th November 2024

Free School Meals for Infants

Children at school and in reception class, year 1 or year 2 (key stage 1) can have free school meals. This is called universal infant free school meals (UIFSM). You don't need to claim for UIFSM, just contact your child’s school.

 

Income-related Free School Meals:

We suggest you do make a claim for free school meals even if your child is in key stage 1 as the school can claim additional funding (pupil premium) for new equipment and resources.

You can apply for nursery-age children if they attend before and after lunch sessions at a local authority nursery school, nursery class or an Academy nursery if it has the same Ofsted number as the primary school.

Phone 0300 123 5012 for further information and help.

You can also apply for Free School Meals (FSM) here.
