Do Rotating Meals continue over the school holidays?

Rotating Meal menus continue to rotate during academic holidays (like Christmas or Easter). Parents are not able to make meal bookings during holiday periods via the Parent Portal or App. 

For more information on how to set up your Academic Calendar and holiday dates, see this article.

It is therefore, really important to double check the rotating period selected when adding a rotating meal menu and which week your menu will land on when you return to school after the holidays.

Please note: Parents will not be able to see or make meal choices during the holiday period.

Why is the Meal Menu on the wrong week after a holiday?

School holiday weeks are not skipped. For example, if you have a 3-week rotating meal menu:

• This week is week A
• Next week is half-term; however, the half-term week will still be week B
• The week after the holiday will be week C

Should you wish to restart your rotating meal menu on a certain week (such as week B), you would need to:

1. End your meal menu at the end of the week before the holiday
2. Set up a new meal menu to start on the first day back after the holiday
