School Meals cost £2.30 per day, £11.50 per week.  All meals are cooked off-site and brought in on a daily basis.  If you wish to order school meals for your child, please send the money on a Monday morning in a sealed envelope, marked with your child’s name, the amount enclosed and the days on which meals are required. Cheques should be made payable to ‘Corvus Education Trust.’  Parents in receipt of Income Support or Income Based Job Seekers Allowance may be entitled to claim for free school meals.
