School Dinners

New Catering Company from 6th January 2026

We are pleased to inform you that our school is working with a new catering company called Cucina.

One of the key benefits of our partnership with Cucina is that children are now able to switch freely between school lunches and packed lunches from home, we understand that this was something that many parents felt strongly about. Cucina also offer a choice of filled rolls (tuna mayo, cheese, egg, chicken, ham) for if your child doesn't want a cooked meal.

Parents and carers book meals directly through the Cucina booking app, giving families greater flexibility and control. 

The Cucina app includes 19 language options (English, Bulgarian, Danish, German, Greek, Spanish, French, Gaelic, Hungarian, Italian, Dutch, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Chinese), which we hope will make the system more accessible for all members of our school community.

Please see the food ordering handbook below for further details;

Packed Lunches

At Epsom Primary School, we ask that parents/carers ensure that packed lunches are healthy and well-balanced, we encourage healthy eating at school. Try these healthy-packed lunch ideas.

Please note the following points about packed lunches:

• No nuts. The school is a nut-free school so please check carefully and avoid nut products in lunch boxes. Some of our children have severe nut allergies. 
• No sweets, chocolates or fizzy drinks
• No glass bottles or breakable containers

Below is our EPS guide to creating a healthy lunchbox for your child
