School Meals at St Catherine’s

Free School Meals

Depending on your financial circumstances, you may be able to claim free school meals. Please speak to staff in the school office for more information, or visit the Sheffield.gov.uk website. If your child is entitled to free school meals based on your financial circumstances, they will also be entitled to free school milk. Please note: this also applies to children in Nursery who attend for full days.

If your child is in Reception, Year 1 or Year 2, they are automatically entitled to free school meals; this is called Universal Infant Free School Meals. This does not entitle your child to free school milk (unless they are under the age of 5).

Ordering School Meals

Children can order on the day from a selection of hot or cold options.

Children order meals with their teacher each morning in class. If your child is running late and would like a meal, you need to let the school office know before 9:30am.

Medical Diets

Our caterers can accommodate all medical dietary needs, please contact the school office straight away if your child has a food allergy or intolerance and we will explain the process.

If we become aware of an allergy or intolerance, whilst a medical diet is in the process of setting up, the caterers are only able to provide a meal which contains no allergens, e.g. jacket potato.
