Message from Mellors;

We’re delighted that Mellors Catering Services are now providing the catering at Sandringham Primary! We’re looking forward to working with the staff and parents to encourage more children to choose a nutritious meal at school and introduce them to our World of Fun with Food!

Following feedback, we have worked in partnership with the school to ensure that our menus cater for all the pupils at the school throughout the menu cycle. Here are the updated three-week menus, which now show if HMC Halal meat is used in the dish or not.

We look forward to continuing to build a healthy school meal relationship with you all, and serving your children delicious, healthy food.

All school lunches, including those in receipt of Free or Universal Free School meals must be ordered via ParentPay a minimum of 1 week in advance. Where a school meal is not ordered within this timeframe, a packed lunch must be provided from home. Please see below the booking deadline dates.

The school will ensure that parents/care givers are regularly reminded and will monitor the contents of lunchboxes and snack.
