School Dinners Great Menu Although we don’t cook our own school dinners, we can offer an appetising and varied menu cooked by the kitchens at Langham Oaks School just down the road. Hot dinners are nutritious, tasty and popular with staff and children alike. The Yorkshire pudding on roast day is legendary! Easy to bookSchool dinners are easy to book online using your ‘School Money’ account. Don’t forget, children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a free hot meal every day. This is sometimes called a ‘Universal Free School Meal’. You don’t need to register if your child is eligible for a Universal Free School Meal, just book online with ‘School Money’.
