School Meals
At St. Michael's we provide a wide range of good quality menu options for our students. Every day, students have the choice between a hot meal option, a ‘Grab & Go’ option and cold meal options.
All food is sourced from reputable and respected suppliers. The food is bought in and then made, according to Trust recipes and procedures, in the kitchen at St. Michael’s. The academy is fully compliant with all food and hygiene standards.
The hot meal options will always include a full hot meal and a vegetarian option for any child wanting to sit down in the school bistro to eat. The ‘Grab & Go’ option is a hot food option that students can select such as a pasta pot or a fajita wrap. The cold food option will always include a wide range of sandwiches, rolls and wraps to cater for all student tastes. In the main bistro there is a salad bar that is popular with many students as either a main meal or as a side option. For dessert, fruit and cookies are available each day.
We run a three weekly menu cycle for our hot food and ‘Grab & Go’ options. These can be viewed in the link below.
We value the views of our students and collect these on a half-termly basis from our students. As a parent, should you wish to contact us to share your views about, or if you have any questions about your child’s dining experience, please click the link below and let us know.
