New Reception and Nursery Children

School Dinners and sQuid
A reminder to parents of children in Year 3 that School Dinners are no longer free, as the Universal Free School Meals program only includes children up to Year 2.
Children in Year 3 will either:
- be entitled to Free School Meals (due to family income, meaning children are eligible for Pupil Premium Funding);
- pay for school meals via Squid;
- have packed lunches.
Week beginning 5th September is week 3 on the Havering catering services menu. All meals are served with unlimited salad and vegetables and cost £2.37.
Please be reminded that your child’s sQuid account should be topped up at all times. We cannot provide dinners for pupils whose account exceeds a debt of £10. If you are experiencing difficulties please contact Mrs West in the school office who will be able to provide you with support and assistance.
