At Hazelbury Primary School, we pride ourselves on the quality of our school meals, providing nutritious, healthy food served in an environment that promotes social interaction.

Since September 2014, all children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 have been offered a free school meal at no cost to parents/carers (for details, see the document below).

Following the government's announcement, as of Monday 4th September 2023, all school meals from Reception to Year 6 continue to be free.

Medical Diet Menus

Our new caterers have provided parents with a guide which aims to ensure that children with diagnosed allergies and intolerances are supported and receive a tasty, nutritious, and safe meal. The nutrition and catering teams will work together and follow a robust process, so you can feel reassured that whenever safely possible, an alternative menu will be provided for your child. If your child requires a medical diet due to a diagnosed food allergy, diagnosed food intolerance or a medical condition requiring an adapted menu (e.g. carbohydrate count for Type 1 Diabetes), please click this link to request a medical diet. For further support, please refer to the following document: ‘Medical Diet Menus – A Guide for Parents, Guardians & Carers’.

All medical diet requests must be supported with medical evidence. This must be in the form of a letter which clearly outlines your child’s food allergies/ intolerances, and must be from a medical Doctor, Dietitian or Specialist Nurse. Kindly note, you DO NOT need to make a request for dietary preferences, or for the following diets: vegan, pescatarian, vegetarian or halal, as these requirements can be met through our standard menu.
