We have an on-site kitchen where the staff cook meals to order.  Hampshire County Council Education Catering set a three week rolling menu.  There is a choice of three options each day, a meat (red), a vegetarian (green) or a jacket potato (blue) option. During the summer term children in Year 3 – Year 6 can also choose a picnic option (purple).

Each meal will cost £3.00 for Year 3 to Year 6. Meals can be ordered daily and we prefer payment either at the beginning of the week or on the day, using our Tucasi secure online payment system (SCOPAY). All outstanding dinner money must be paid by the Friday of the same week.

For help with online payments please email the school office: adminoffice@redbarn.hants.sch.uk

If your child is going to be late, eg. because of a medical appointment and will miss the ordering of their meal, please give the office a call so we can give the kitchen the correct meal choice. Meal orders close at 9.45am.

Special Diets

Hampshire County Council Education Catering can provide a special menu for those children who have a special diet or allergies to certain foods. Apply online via the Hampshire County Council Education Catering website.

Free School Meals

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a meal, free of charge, under the universal infant free school meals (UIFSM) programme.

If you think your child may be entitled to a free school lunch click here for more information or please ask at the school office.

If your child does not have a school meal but is entitled to have one, you can still register as there may be an occasion when your child will require a meal eg. Christmas or a special themed meal to coincide with a school project or special event.
