SwiftKitchen - NEW Online Booking System from September 2025

From September 2025, Aspens will be using a new system for school meal ordering called SwiftKitchen.

Web browser:  https://app.swiftkitchen.co.uk/

When your child starts school, the office will issue you with a letter which contains log in details and a password to enable you to setup your account. The current price of a school meal is £2.75. Here is a useful  User Guide for SwiftKitchen below:

Special Diets Information

If your child has an allergy or requires a special diet please review the additional information below from Aspens our school meals provider. 

You will need to complete a special diet request form and return it to the School Office.

A copy of the latest Menu can be found at the top of this page. The 'school packed lunch' option will continue alongside the other menu options, consisting of a freshly filled sandwich or roll, healthy snack, home bake and piece of fruit.

Jacket Potatoes with assorted fillings are also provided daily as well as a hot pasta option.

School meals are eaten in the school dining hall and children with packed lunches also eat outside when the weather is fine. Please be aware that as some children in school have nut allergies, nut products are not permitted in children's lunch boxes (ie. nutella, peanut butter sandwiches, raisin and nut mix etc.)

Please note that if your child is currently in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 - they are entitled to a nutritionally balanced packed lunch for free each day as part of the current Universal Infant Free School Meals scheme.

(Our amazing kitchen team and lunchtime supervisors served around 300 Christmas roast lunches
on 15th December)
