Healthy Lunch Options

A healthy, nutritious packed lunch helps children stay energised, focused and ready to learn throughout the school day. We encourage families to include a good balance of fruit, vegetables, protein and whole‑grain items, supporting positive lifelong eating habits.
As part of our approach to healthy choices at Manor Drive Primary Academy, part of the Four Cs, we ask that each lunch contains only one chocolate item. We also want to remind families that we are a nut‑aware school, so no items containing nuts should be included in packed lunches to help keep all pupils safe. Thank you for your support in promoting wellbeing across our school community.
Please note, we offer a range of healthy hot dinner options each day through our catering partner, Accent. Meals are freshly prepared, nutritionally balanced and designed to give children the fuel they need for an active school day. The cost of a school meal is £2.60, unless your child is entitled to free school meals, in which case there is no charge.
