Primary

Our School catering provider at the primary site is Chartwells.

We offer a healthy school dinner menu prepared fresh at school each day by our wonderful school cooks.

Each day, there is a choice of two meals plus pudding and salad bar. We follow a three-week rolling menu. When your child starts at The Bay CE School, they will be entitled to a free hot school meal, right through to Year 2. The cost of a cooked school meal is £3.00 per day (primary) and £2.95 per day (secondary) payable for children in key stage 2, 3 and 4.

To find out if you are entitled to free school meals for your child, please contact The Isle of Wight Council or click here https://www.iow.gov.uk/Council/OtherServices/Free-School-Meals/Key-Stage-1-and-2.

If you prefer to send a packed lunch in for your child, please avoid sweets, chocolate and fizzy drinks and opt for healthy alternatives.

Secondary 

We are delighted to announce an exciting change to our school meal service. Beginning in September 2024, we will be transitioning to an in-house catering operation. This means that our dedicated and passionate staff will have more freedom in preparing the meals fresh on-site, using high-quality ingredients and ensuring they are affordable.
