School Meals

School meals are freshly cooked at SJSM every day.  Our Menus are available from the School Office and via the School Grid website where you order and pay for your child's school meals https://www.live-kitchen.co.uk/.  Children in Early Years and Key Stage 1 are entitled to a universal free school meal every day. 

Parents can pre-order their child's school meal(s) at home via the internet until 8.30am on the day of the meal and payments for Key Stage 2 pupil meals can also be made via the above website.   You can pay daily, weekly or termly, but payment should be made in advance of the meal being taken.  If your child has allergens or special dietary requirements, you can provide details via the School grid website or you can contact the School Office on 0161 764 5330.

Free School Meals

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 get a free school meal at lunchtime, under the government's Infant Free School Meals scheme. However if your child is in a Key Stage 1 year group and you get one of the qualifying incomes it will help school if you make a claim for free school meals, as we can get extra funding that we use to further support our children.
