School Meals at Meoncross

Healthy food for healthy minds

Freshly prepared each and every day, our tasty and nutritious meals are made from scratch, on our school site by 'The Kitchen @ Meoncross' Team.

Meoncross School has a healthy and enthusiastic approach to food in school, offering a wide variety of freshly cooked nutritious meals, which are procured from high-quality local suppliers.

There are a variety of options for our pupils, including vegetarian dishes and a salad bar. We also include a range of proteins in our weekly menus to support cognitive health, as well as a variety of beans and pulses for plenty of imaginative plant-based options.

Catered for individual pupils

Our 'Kitchen @ Meoncross' Team know what makes a great and nutritious lunch, and they provide this daily for the benefit of all our pupils. We ensure an outstanding experience for our pupils, providing healthy and balanced meals, which support their development and enrich the educational experience. We believe in an innovative and seasonal approach to cooking, using fresh ingredients and cooking from scratch.

Chef Debbie, who leads the 'Kitchen @ Meoncross' Team, takes time to get to know all the children, and what special requirements they may have, which helps alleviate any worries or concerns any children could feel. Some children might need a little extra encouragement to try something new, or there may be certain things for religious or allergy reasons, they can't have. The Team are always on hand to provide the best possible care and catering for our pupils.
