Freshly prepared food and locally sourced ingredients
At St. Margaret's, we prioritise healthy eating and good nutrition, practising what we teach. Our daily menu includes a meat-free option alongside regular dishes, accompanied by a fresh salad bar and homemade soup, ensuring balanced meals for every pupil.
The kitchen diligently caters to food allergies, intolerances, special diets (gluten-free, vegetarian, etc.), and religious requirements. We foster a calm dining hall atmosphere, encouraging children to eat and converse with their peers. Simultaneous departure from the dining hall prevents rushed eating.
Parents can assist in selecting meals for Early Years children from a three-week menu each term. All school children and full-day Nursery attendees enjoy a cooked lunch.
