Morrisons issues fresh update on Kids Eat Free scheme ahead of October half-term

Families across Britain can breathe a sigh of relief this October half-term as Morrisons continues to cut the cost of feeding hungry youngsters.

The supermarket chain offers a money-saving initiative at its cafés, allowing children aged 16 and under to tuck into a free meal whenever an adult orders a main course above £5.


The Kids Eat Free promotion runs at all 344 Morrisons Cafés, making it easy for families to grab an affordable bite wherever they are.

Securing the deal works simply: when you buy any main course from The Breakfasts or The Classics menu, your little ones eat for free.

Kids can choose from a tasty selection on the Birds Eye kids menu, including chicken dippers, fish fingers, veggie fingers or a mini four-cheese pizza from Goodfella’s. Each free meal comes with a drink too, saving parents £4 per child.

It’s a welcome boost for parents feeling the pinch during the school holidays.

Diners can also tuck into two meals with any two drinks for just £15, available every day from 12pm until close.

This, coupled with Kids Eat Free, means a family of four can enjoy a meal together for just £15.

While the Kids Eat Free offer runs year-round, families are encouraged to make the most of it during school holidays.

Not only is it an easy way to spend quality time with loved ones, but it also provides respite for parents when free school meals aren’t readily available.

With locations across the country, there’s bound to be a Morrisons Café nearby where you can make the most of the offer over the break.

Senior café trader at Morrisons, Matt Khan, said: “We recognise that for many parents and carers, ensuring kids are well-fed during the school holidays can be particularly tough, especially without access to free school meals.

“That’s why we continue to provide our Kids Eat Free offer, just one of the ways we’re making nutritious food more affordable and accessible for families.”

In other Morrisons news, the supermarket recently launched a new loyalty scheme offering customers a “significant opportunity”.

Now, More Card holders are entitled to a special bonus when they shop at franchise stores: those who spend £15 or more will bag themselves an extra 1,500 loyalty points.

This marks the latest “milestone” in the roll-out of the Morrisons More Card scheme to franchise partners.

On April 12, 2021, a Knoxville police officer shot and killed an African American male student in a bathroom at Austin-East High School. The incident caused social unrest, and community members began demanding transparency about the shooting, including the release of the officer’s body camera video. On the evening of April 19, 2021, the Defendant and a group of protestors entered the Knoxville City-County Building during a Knox County Commission meeting. The Defendant activated the siren on a bullhorn and spoke through the bullhorn to demand release of the video. Uniformed police officers quickly escorted her and six other individuals out of the building and arrested them for disrupting the meeting. The court upheld defendants’ conviction for “disrupting a lawful meeting,” defined as “with the intent to prevent [a] gathering, … substantially obstruct[ing] or interfere[ing] with the meeting, procession, or gathering by physical action or verbal utterance.” Taken in the light most favorable to the State, the evidence shows that the Defendant posted on Facebook the day before the meeting and the day of the meeting that the protestors were going to “shut down” the meeting. During the meeting, the Defendant used a bullhorn to activate a siren for approximately twenty seconds. Witnesses at trial described the siren as “loud,” “high-pitched,” and “alarming.” Commissioner Jay called for “Officers,” and the Defendant stated through the bullhorn, “Knox County Commission, your meeting is over.” Commissioner Jay tried to bring the meeting back into order by banging his gavel, but the Defendant continued speaking through the bullhorn. Even when officers grabbed her and began escorting her out of the Large Assembly Room, she continued to disrupt the meeting by yelling for the officers to take their hands off her and by repeatedly calling them “murderers.” Commissioner Jay called a ten-minute recess during the incident, telling the jury that it was “virtually impossible” to continue the meeting during the Defendant’s disruption. The Defendant herself testified that the purpose of attending the meeting was to disrupt the Commission’s agenda and to force the Commission to prioritize its discussion on the school shooting. Although the duration of the disruption was about ninety seconds, the jury was able to view multiple videos of the incident and concluded that the Defendant substantially obstructed or interfered with the meeting. The evidence is sufficient to support the Defendant’s conviction. Defendant also claimed the statute was “unconstitutionally vague as applied to her because the statute does not state that it includes government meetings,” but the appellate court concluded that she had waived the argument by not raising it adequately below. Sean F. McDermott, Molly T. Martin, and Franklin Ammons, Assistant District Attorneys General, represent the state.
