(Please note that the menu is subject to slight changes due to availability.)
We use a cashless system where credit is purchased via Wisepay. The credit is attached to the studentโs ID card and, when presented to the cashier, the value of the meal is deducted from the account. There is a minimum credit top-up amount of ยฃ10 and we regularly contact parents when studentsโ accounts are running low.
We ask parents to ensure that students have a sufficient balance on their cards to enable them to make their intended purchases as we do not offer credit. Parents are able to view purchases on Wisepay, and request that their child is prevented from making specific purchases (e.g. from the vending machine). Lost cards should be reported promptly so that a stop can be placed on an account; cards will be replaced at a charge.
