School Lunches in Makaton

School Dinners.

Our Kitchen Staff provide a healthy choice of food each day. We always provide a meat (halal and non-halal) and a vegetarian meal. There is a wide choice which caters for most dietary needs. Our menus are at the top of this page.

If you have any queries or concerns, please feel free to contact the Manager;

Mrs Turley on her e-mail kitchen@st-johns-pri.bham.sch.uk, she will try her best to reply to you within 24 hours of receiving your message.

Free School Meals.

You may be eligible to claim free school meals for your child if you get one of the following:

•  Universal Credit (provided you have an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400, as assessed by earnings from up to three of your most recent assessment periods)
• Income Support
• Income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
• Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
• Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
• The guarantee element of Pension Credit
• Child Tax Credit (provided you're not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)
• Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for four weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit 

To claim a free school meal you should ask at the school office for an application form. You will need to complete the form and return it to us, along with evidence to support your application.

Packed lunch

There is space in the dining hall for children who prefer a packed lunch. This choice is open to all children. In line with our policy on healthy eating, we wish to see a sandwich (or the equivalent, not hot food) and a piece of fruit to be included in each child’s lunchbox.
