School Meals
WE ARE A NUT-FREE SCHOOL
OWING TO SEVERE NUT ALLERGIES IN SCHOOL, WE DO NOT ALLOW NUTS OR NUT PRODUCTS OF ANY KIND TO BE BROUGHT INTO SCHOOL.
At The Highway Primary School, we believe that the best option for children at lunchtime is to have the hot school dinner, provided through our partnership with Nourish, an external catering company.
During Academic Year 2023/24 all primary aged children in London had the opportunity to take a free hot school meal every day and this has been extended to cover Academic Year 2024/25.
We believe a hot school dinner option is much better for the children’s learning and health. We recognise the evidence that states:
- Children are better prepared for learning if they eat well
- Children make more progress if they have eaten the right nutritional lunch
- Only 1% of packed lunches provide the correct nutrition
- Eating hot dinners is an important social occasion and the children learn vital social skills.
Nourish meals provide all the nutrients that children require through the week. They produce a menu which has a four weekly cycle - please see the current menu below:
Menu from April 2025
SCHOOL MENU: APRIL - OCTOBER 2025
Our goal is to have ZERO packed lunches but if you do provide your child with a packed lunch please see our Healthy Packed Lunch Policy
