We work with Cool Milk to deliver milk in school. Milk is the ideal mid-morning drink for your child, and for many it’s absolutely free.

  • School milk is free for children under the age of five
  • From January 2015 school milk is free for children who are in receipt of free school meals. Please contact the school office to register your child.
  • School milk is subsidised for all other children in primary education, and usually costs around £15 per term.

If you would like to register your child for milk please complete a registration form by selecting the following link School Milk or collect a form from our school office.
