School Lunches

All children in Early Years, Year One and Year Two are entitled to a daily, free hot school dinner.

At New Horizons Primary School, we believe that every pupil should enjoy healthy and nutritious meals to support their learning. 

We partner with a catering specialist called Innovate, a member of Impact Food Group, who offer quality food choice, flexibility and speed at the heart of everything they do. 

Their food is inspired by the best and most fashionable high street concepts, fusing fantastic quality food with the industry's leading quick service style food markets and cafes.

If you are in Years 3-6, you can purchase a school meal for £2.55 a day. Meals are prepared freshly on site in our new kitchen. Meals are paid online on Arbor and must be ordered in advance, meals cannot be ordered on the day.

Packed lunch guidelines

Fruit, milk and water

Fruit in Early Years, Year One and Year Two:

We take part in the national fruit scheme, which provides a free piece of fruit (and occasionally vegetables) for every child every day. Fruit and vegetables provided include apples, bananas, pears, oranges, tomatoes, carrots and mini-cucumbers.

Fruit in Years Three to Six:

Please provide a fresh piece of fruit or vegetables for your child’s mid morning playtime. 

Milk in Early Years, Year One and Year Two

We also take part in the national school milk scheme. Children under 5 are entitled to free school milk and this is given to the children during the daily routine in the Early Years.  If your child is over 5 and you wish them to have milk please complete the following form, copies are also available from the school office.   

If your child is in Years Three to Six and is entitled to a free school dinner then they can also have free milk daily, Please speak to your child’s class teacher.

Water

We encourage children to have plenty of drinks of water through the day as this aids concentration and physical health. Drinking plenty of water during the day has also been shown to improve bed-wetting problems.

The school provides each child with a water bottle in Year R, which is needs to be refilled every day and brought into school. If you would like to purchase an NHP branded bottle they can be purchased at the school office for £1.50 each.
