School Meals

We operate a cashless canteen system and all canteen top ups will need to be made via your Arbor account. Accounts can only be topped up online and as a cashless school we do not accept cash or cheques for top ups or payments. You can use this guide for full details regarding how to top up

Top up accounts and viewing payments in the Parent Portal – Arbor Help Centre



Your child may be able to get Free School Meals if you qualify for any of the following:

  • Income Support
  • Income Based Jobseekers' Allowance
  • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
  • Support under part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • The Guaranteed element of State Pension Credit
  • Child Tax Credit (provided you are not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)
  • Working Tax Credit 'run-on' - paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
  • Universal Credit


Children who get any of the above benefits in their own right (ie. they get benefits payments directly, instead of through a parent or guardian) can also get Free School Meals.
Children under the compulsory school age who are in full-time education may also be able to get Free School Meals.

Information and how to apply for  Free School Meals can be found on the Norfolk County Council website.
 
If you need any further support, Help with Living Costs can also be found on the Norfolk County Council website.
 
If you require further help and support with living costs, please refer to www.norfolk.gov.uk/nas or call 0344 800 8020.
