Food Boxes
There is no Voucher scheme available at present and as an alternative option to daily packed lunches we are now also able to offer a weekly food box for children eligible for Free School Meals (one box per child).
Boxes must be ordered via this email address and will be available for collection within 48 hrs if ordered before 11am on day orders requested. We have some capacity for delivery if families are self-isolating, shielding or have no transport available.
Children attending the school's emergency provision will continue to receive dinners in school.
If you wish to order a box please send your request to fsm@martinwilson.shropshire.sch.ukwith the following information:
