What are your catering facilities like?
The children enjoy having a choice from a varied hot lunch menu. Meals are prepared by our own catering staff, who work hard to ensure that the children are provided with a wide range of healthy, balanced meals, in line with the national standards for food in schools.
Our bright, purpose built, dining room provides a friendly welcoming environment and is large enough for all of the children to have their midday meal alongside each other.
Where appropriate, children are supported by familiar staff at the dinner table.
