School Meals

Children have an option of two meal types at Surfleet Primary School, packed lunch or hot school dinner.

Packed Lunches

We encourage children to bring in healthy packed lunches, which do not contain chocolate bars, sweets or fizzy drinks.  Please bring packed lunch in a secure plastic box clearly marked with your child’s name.  Children’s drinks should be in watertight plastic containers.

Hot School Dinners

Your child may choose to have hot school dinners which are provided by Willoughby Foods.  Willoughby Foods offer tasty, nutritious lunches.  Parents need to order meals online via the Willoughby Foods website before the deadline of 12pm on a Tuesday.

Please see the menus choices below for each week as well as the allergens list.

Free School Meals

Children of parents receiving Income Support or Working Tax Credit may be eligible for a free school meal.  Further details can be obtained from the school, and information will be treated in the strictest confidence.

Universal Infant Free School Meals

Universal Infant Free School Meals provides free school meals to all children in KS1.

Willoughby Foods will already have data from the school to know which children are eligible.  Meals chosen for children in KS2 will need your online payment, for KS1 children they just need your menu choice.

Drink Water

We strongly encourage children to drink more water during the day.  Children should have a water bottle which is to be brought to school daily filled with preferably still water, with the child’s name clearly marked on the bottle.  At the end of the day, the bottle is taken home, washed and refilled and brought to school the next day.  Drinking more water throughout the day has a proven effect on how children perform at school and so we hope that parents will be supportive of this.
