School Meals

Giles Junior School has a reputation for producing excellent lunches. Most of our children have a school dinner and we do encourage our pupils to take the opportunity to have a hot meal at midday. There is a choice of meals each day and the menus run on a three-week rota.

School dinners may be paid using the School Gateway. They can be paid for weekly, in advance, or daily if preferred.

Currently the cost of a school meal is £3.15 per day.

From 1st April 2024 a school meal price will be increased to £3.40
