School Lunches

Healthy bodies, healthy minds

Whether starting school for the first time or entering a new year group, the new school year brings a fresh start with lots of exciting, and sometimes daunting, new experiences.

However, lunchtimes can be a really fun part of the school day where pupils can recharge with their friends and enjoy lots of different, delicious and healthy foods.

Chartwells (a leading provider of catering for independent schools) work with us to deliver tasty, freshly-prepared meals that have been developed by award-winning chefs. Visit their website to find out more.

Together, we aim to embed the importance of eating healthily from a young age.

Part of this journey includes encouraging our students to care for the environment through sustainable food sources. As such, we support British farmers, and we buy locally sourced eggs and milk.

We offer a wide range of dishes to choose from:

  • A selection of hot meals, with plenty of vegetarian options

  • A full salad bar, with bread rolls or baguettes

  • A selection of hot and cold desserts

  • Soup or jacket potatoes are available every day

Delicious meals

We support children in developing their culinary curiosity

From themed events such as Mexican Day and Chinese New Year in which our pupils are given the opportunity to try new foods from around the world, through to a delicious Christmas dinner and creative Halloween party nibbles.

This is further enhanced by our ‘Eat Vibrantly’ initiative in which one high-nutrient fruit or vegetable (such as beetroot and avocado) is introduced to the pupils each month. By the end of the month, we endeavour to make sure that the students have added something new and nutritious to their diet

Food allergies

There is a double checking system in place for Nursery and Prep School pupils with special diets

This system is to ensure they are catered for safely. We ask our Senior School pupils with special diets to liaise directly with Chartwells staff during lunchtime, to ensure their needs are met.

Pupils with food allergies from Nursery through to Senior School are catered for. Relevant information will need to be provided from the pupil's medical consult, general practitioner or registered dietitian; to ensure that Chartwells can safely meet the needs of the pupil.

More than just school meals

We also use assemblies, workshops and lesson plans to help communicate the importance of healthy eating, and support its vital connection with learning, in an informative, entertaining and engaging way.
