All primary school pupils in Monmouthshire get free school meals through the Universal Free School Meals scheme.
If your household has a low income, you can also apply for the school essential grant to help with other school related costs.
Adapted menus are available on request to meet medically prescribed dietary needs and for learners with religious, ethical or cultural dietary requirements. Please contact the Schools Catering Office to discuss your child’s needs.
Many Thanks

Parent Pay
Monmouthshire County Council has recently been involved in rolling out the ‘Parent Pay’ online payments system to all its primary schools. This brings online payment systems up to date and ensure that citizens have the benefit of the latest technology when it comes to their child’s school life. Parent accounts can be accessed via your smartphone, tablet or laptop, giving you the most up to date statement of payments into school from anywhere you have a signal. It will give you the chance to pay for school meals, trips and other items from the comfort of your home, whilst being safe knowing whether your child has had a hot lunch on any given day.. It reduces the impact on the environment and saves money on valuable resources that could be spent elsewhere by eliminating the need for letters in your child’s bag each week.
