Hot meals are available daily in school through the School Meals Service. Children bringing sandwiches for lunch eat at the same time.

The current cost is £2.20 per day (including dessert).

School dinner money, should be brought on a Monday morning in an envelope, with your child’s name on it, stating the number of days lunch is required. Failure to do so leads to unnecessary wastage of teaching and clerical time.

Parents who feel their child might be entitled to free school dinner may obtain a form from the office.

Milk

School milk is provided at a cost of 16p per day. We will send a letter out to each family at the beginning of each month and money should be returned, as advised, by the due date.

Healthy Eating

Drumsallen Primary School is involved in the ‘Healthy Eating Breaks’. A healthy break is provided for all children at a cost of £1.00 per week. We do not permit children to eat sweets or chocolate at break time and no fizzy drinks are allowed in school at any time.

Water Bottles

All pupils should bring in a drinking water bottle to enable them to have regular drinks of water throughout the day. This helps with concentration and attention span. The bottles will be sent home each Friday for cleaning and must be sent in with the child again on Monday morning. These water bottles also need to be clearly labelled with the child’s name.
