HEALTHY FOOD CHOICES

HELPING YOUR CHILD MAKE HEALTHY FOOD CHOICES

Lunchtime is an important part of the day at Colchester Prep & High School. It’s when we come together to eat and chat, reinforcing the sense of community that makes the school such a happy place.

Every child – from Nursery through to Year 8 – enjoys a hot lunchtime meal at school every day. They can choose between vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, and top their selection off with a salad, a drink, and a hot or cold dessert.

In Years 9 to 11, our pupils bring in their own packed lunch which they can enjoy together with their friends in the School Hall.

All pupils from Year 3 can purchase a morning snack from The Wellesley Cafe in their break time.

HEALTHY EATING MAINTAINS CONCENTRATION AND ENERGY LEVELS

The menus, which are prepared by our caterers Thomas Franks, are designed to be healthy, balanced and nutritious. This boosts the children’s academic performance and behaviour in the afternoon and promoting good eating habits outside of school.

The ingredients used are always fresh and regionally sourced, and wherever possible they come from GM-free, organic, free range and fair trade producers.
