School Meals / School Milk
Relish Dinners
We are committed to providing quality, fresh ingredients that we cook from scratch to produce our daily menus. Wherever possible, we use seasonal produce and the daily food offer allows our children to choose from a wide variety of freshly prepared main meals and desserts.
We take parent & pupil voice very seriously. Knowing what a positive impact good food can have on the developing minds and bodies of our children, we attend school council meetings to ensure we capture initial reactions to new dishes and food ideas and gain understanding about what works well. We hold many special days within the school year and work with the school to make sure there is relevance to the event – it may be linked to the curriculum or a theme within school. We welcome the wider community to our events to showcase what we do best!
The ‘Parent Portal’ on our website is where you can login to pre order your child(s) menu choice up to a term in advance. You can also view and download our menus and recipes, see what forthcoming events are planned, look at allergen information and directly message the catering manager.

As an alternative to school meals, children may bring a packed lunch in a single plastic container clearly marked with their name. Drinks should be in cartons, plastic bottles or flasks (no tins, glass bottles or squashy bags please). Water and beakers are provided at the table. Children in KS1 are provided with fruit to eat at break time. Children in KS2 are allowed to bring in a piece of fruit for break. This needs to be wrapped separately from any packed lunch. Parents should note that packed lunches are stored in the classroom and not refrigerated. Please be careful that none of the lunch ‘leaks’ or melts! We ask that you do not include sweets in packed lunch boxes. Please ensure that the lunch does not contain nuts or foods containing nuts.
Milk
Milk is available for all Fairfields Primary School & Nursery children, if you would like your child to receive milk at school please follow the instructions in the PDF above or via www.coolmilk.com
Payments for milk are made when ordering and is provided free of charge for children under 5 and children who qualify for free school meals, however this must still be requested.
