Ordering and Payments

Lunches are provided free of charge for children in Reception to Year Two as well as those families eligible for Free School Meals. Otherwise, a school meal will cost £2.50 per day and needs to be paid for via iPay.

Children aged 3 – 7 will also receive a piece of free fruit each day.

A vegetarian option is always available and the kitchen is usually able to cater for special dietary/medical needs if given advance notice – please contact the school office so we can help you organise this if necessary.

Primary pupils can bring a healthy packed lunch if they wish. This must be agreed on a term-to-term basis and the office informed.

To maintain a healthy lifestyle, pupils may not eat sweets, fizzy drinks or other ‘fast food’ in the school buildings or playground.

Mild dehydration is one of the most common causes of daytime fatigue. Pupils from Year 1 must bring their own water bottle into school each day, but all pupils can access free drinking water from the canteen and school water fountains.

Breakfast Club

Breakfast club runs for primary school pupils every day from 7:45am until the start of the school. The club costs £15 per week.

Although all pupils are welcome, we have a maximum number we can cater for, therefore this provision operates on a first come firs serve basis.

Bookings can be made via the primary office at primary@arkjohnkeatsacademy.org. Payment must be made via Parent Pay.

Please note: Reception children cannot attend breakfast club until January to give them time to settle properly into school life first. Nursery children cannot attend breakfast club.
