School Meals Provision
Gledhow meals are cooked from fresh in our school kitchens by Jane Glossop and her LCC catering team. Our termly menus provide a high quality nutritionally balanced choice of meals for the children.
Each day there are four menu options: GREEN - Vegetarian , RED - Meat, YELLOW - Sandwich, PURPLE - Jacket Potato. A salad bar and selection of desserts are available each day.
The children order their meal at registration each day so that meals can then be prepared to order.
School Meals and Packed Lunches
Some parents may wish their child to enjoy a packed lunch provided from home, rather than a school meal. Please let the school office know if your child prefers to have a packed lunch. Requests to change school meals to packed lunches or vice-versa can only happen at the end of each half-term and should be made in writing to the School Office. Confirmation will be sent to parents once the change has been made.
