Most of you should have received FSM Supermarket Voucher to cover two weeks. The third batch will cover two weeks in total but there is a delay with this batch. The system is still struggling to process all the vouchers, we are hopeful this batch will process before Thursday.
For those who haven't received any ecodes, if you haven't done so already please email me directly on pam.malli@larchfieldschool.co.uk
If you are eligible for this scheme, you will receive an email this week, which contains a 16-digit eCode and a link to the redemption. www.freeschoolmeals.co.uk
Once families have received their voucher, they will be able to redeem them in-store at the selected retailer by either:
Families are free to select the most appropriate food and drink for their child. When selecting products, we encourage families to consider health and nutrition. The School Food Standards may act as a useful guide for families.
The vouchers should not be redeemed for any age-restricted items, such as alcohol, cigarettes or lottery tickets.
There are a number of online resources available to support families in preparing healthy and nutritious food, including on the NHS Eat Well website.
Further details regarding how eCodes can be redeemed are available in the parents/carer's FAQ document.
If you have any questions, please contact pam.malli@larchfieldschool.co.uk
