The Wavell Café

HC3S Student Survey 2017

In previous years you told us that the speed of service was more important than price, variety and portion size, so in the past twelve months we have started a programme to install external service points, or “pods” Where these have been sited they have taken a huge amount of pressure, and lots of customers away from the main dining areas, reducing queues and speeding up service.

Telling us what you want does work.

So for 2017 we need to hear from you again. Whether your experiences have been good or bad we want to know. Log on to

New Online “Free School Meal” Eligibility Checking

Hampshire County Council Catering Services (HC3S) has launched a new online service so parents can check their eligibility for free school meals themselves.

This self-service option is available here

http://www3.hants.gov.uk/caterers/hc3s-informationforschools/hc3s/freeschoolmeals.htm

Please note that the criteria for free school meals is the same, regardless of method of checking eligibility, but for the online service, all you need to do is enter your name, national insurance number or asylum number, your address and your child’s details. Press ‘submit’ and you will find out if you are eligible.
If your result comes back ‘found’, this means your child is eligible for free meals and the system automatically tells your school. No more hassle in digging out paperwork and going into school to get it checked!
