Cashless Catering System - Arbor Pay

Lynn Grove Academy operates a cashless catering system to ensure that students can manage their accounts safely and easily; Biometric systems use personal characteristics to authenticate an individual. Students purchase their break and lunchtime items via thumbprints. Biometrics will not be taken from a child unless consent is issued by a parent or guardian. 

Parents can easily top up their childs' account via the Arbor Pay Parent App or Arbor Pay Parent Portal. Please see further information below. We recommend using the Arbor App where possible as this allows you to make payments quickly and easily on your phone using Apple Pay or Google Pay.

Should you have any questions or problems with access, please email enquiries@caisteracademy.org.uk.
