School Meals Provision
Gledhow meals are cooked from fresh in our school kitchens by the LCC catering team. Our termly menus provide a high quality nutritionally balanced choice of meals for the children.
Each day a choice of grab-a-bag lunches is available.
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. 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.
Please send your child's packed lunch in a wipeable lunch box and remind your child that they should not share their lunch with other children - its just for them to enjoy.
Gledhow school politely requests that you do not include any items in your child's lunch that may contain nuts - including cereal bars, nut-based sandwich fillings and whole nuts. This is for the safety of the children in school who have a nut allergy.
