Catering

School Meals

Our canteen and kitchen service offer quality food and drinks served by our professional and caring catering staff.

Arnold and Newman canteens are open before school, at break time and lunch time.

We operate a cashless catering system which runs alongside Parent Pay, our online payment provider. Through Parent Pay, parents can top up and view transactions on their child’s school meal account. For more information about Parent Pay at Maricourt, please use the link below. Copies of your child's unique registration letter can be requested from the school finance office.

Parent Pay

If your son or daughter is in receipt of a free school meal, their account is credited with £2.50 each day that they are present in school, which does not accumulate with time.

Registering for Free School Meals

If your child is eligible for free school meals, it is worth registering them even if they are not going to have school lunches. This is because schools receive a 'Pupil Premium' which is an extra payment for each eligible child that schools can spend on additional, targeted support for pupils.

 

In order to check eligibility and apply for free school meals, we have provided the relevant links below.

If you live within the Sefton area, we have included the authority’s criteria and application form.
