We aim to make our lunches nutritious and appetising, following current food standards and recommendations. ![](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/images/lunch_4.jpg) Each day there is a choice of meals. Meals are prepared and served in accordance with strict Halal requirements. Our Catering, Kitchen and Welfare staff are all aware of individual dietary requests and preferences. Children eat lunch in the hall in three sittings. They sit in their year groups. Children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 will automatically receive a school dinner as part of the Universal Free School Meal Initiative. As part of the National Fruit Scheme, we provide free fruit or vegetables every afternoon for all infant children. Sweets are not permitted in school. We actively encourage the bringing of healthy snacks at break times for junior children and also healthy lunch box choices. **We are also a nut free school**. ![](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/images/lunch_6.jpg) **Our lunches cost £2.40 per day.** Parents pay for lunches using the Parent Pay app. For further information on this app please speak to the office. ![](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/images/lunch_5.jpg) ### Week Menu School Fund Policy 390 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-silas-ce-primary-school/files/documents/School_Food_Policy_October_2023.docx.pdf) Translations for the menus 3.37 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-silas-ce-primary-school/files/documents/PRIMARY_FLASH_CARDS_AUTUMN_WINTER_22_23_(1)_(1).pdf) Menu 776 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-silas-ce-primary-school/files/documents/St_Silas_(HMC)_.pptx.pdf) ![](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/images/lunch_5.jpg) ### Related News ![Image of Recipe4Health Gold Award](https://files.schudio.com/st-silas-ce-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/news/r4h-logo.png) 31 Oct [2024-10-31-recipe4health-gold-award](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/news/2024-10-31-recipe4health-gold-award) #### [Recipe4Health Gold Award](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/news/2024-10-31-recipe4health-gold-award) ![Image of Favourite Meal](https://files.schudio.com/st-silas-ce-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/news/IMG_20231006_102015.jpg) 6 Oct [2023-10-06-favourite-meal](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/news/2023-10-06-favourite-meal) #### [Favourite Meal](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/news/2023-10-06-favourite-meal) ![Image of New Lunch Menus](https://files.schudio.com/st-silas-ce-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/news/lunch_4.jpg) 15 Sep [2023-09-15-new-lunch-menus](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/news/2023-09-15-new-lunch-menus) #### [New Lunch Menus](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/news/2023-09-15-new-lunch-menus) [View All News](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/news/tag/school-lunches%252Cschool-dinners%252Cparent-pay) ### Parents - [Term Dates](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/termdates) - [Useful Links](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/useful-links) - [Holiday Request Form ](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/useful-links/holiday-request-form) - [School Meal Information](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/useful-links/school-meal-information) - [School Uniform](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/useful-links/school-uniform) - [School Closure Information](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/useful-links/school-closure-info) - [Parent Pay](https://www.parentpay.com/) - [Newsletters](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/newsletters) - [Online Safety](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/online-safety) ##### Location St Silas Road Blackburn BB2 6JP ##### Contact Us 01254 698447 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stsilasceprimary/) - [X](https://twitter.com/StSilas_Primary) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/stsilasblackburn/) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Silas CE Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://st-silas-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
