School Meals/Milk

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 Arbor app. They can be paid for weekly, in advance, or daily if preferred.

From the 1st April 2026 the cost of a school meal will be £3.65
