The offer is available at any of the chain’s supermarkets or Food Warehouse stores.
Those eligible for free school meals will receive a £15 voucher per child for the half term week from their schools or local councils. 
Shoppers that spend their free school meal voucher at Iceland and scan their Bonus Card at checkout will receive £2 back.
The cash is loaded automatically onto their loyalty card and can be used towards their next shop.

The promotion is available in-store only between now and Sunday, June 4.
You can find your closest Iceland by using the store locator tool on the supermarket’s website.
The chain’s loyalty scheme works a little differently to others.
It’s a prepaid card that shoppers load money on to and for every £20 uploaded Iceland will give you £1.

You can then use the card to shop online, in-store or on the app.
Customers signed up to the scheme also benefit from member’s-only prices on certain products.

This isn’t the first time that Iceland has rolled out this half term deal for children on free school meals.
Back in February the same scheme was also dished out to struggling families.
The voucher boost is just one of the initiatives that Iceland is offering this half term to help hard-up households.
Shoppers who spend £25 in-store or £40 online can get a free Kids Pass for three months.

The pass offers over 1,000 discounts on zoos, theme parks, cinemas and restaurants.
Parents who shop at Iceland, The Food Warehouse or on the Iceland website and top up their bonus card with £20 between May 23 and June 6 will get 5% back when shopping.
