Aberdeenshire Council provides an online payment service to primary schools that provides parents and carers with the convenience of making online payment with debit or credit cards for school meals.

Online payment is now the preferred way to pay for primary school meals, however cash and cheques will still be accepted.

Parents should be aware that they can request a special diet for their children if there are medical or religious reasons for doing so.  Children who require medically prescribed or modified diets should be identified during the admission process.

Any pupil who wishes to take a packed lunch on occasion may still do so.
