School Dinners – Cashless system

We are due to have a new school dinner money system installed before June that will enable you to pay for school dinners online or through an app.
We will be sending information packs out a week before the launch with all the information you need to download the app and register your child’s account.
With the new online system, you will be able to keep track of your child’s dinner money to ensure they have sufficient funds available and top-up their account within minutes.
At the start of every week you will need to ensure your child’s account has sufficient funds for school dinners, you will not be able to let the account to go into debt. Any accounts in debt will not be able to order a school dinner and will need to have sandwiches provided.
Until our new system is installed, please can you ensure dinner money is sent into school every Monday. Dinners are £2.10 per day
