Hertfordshire Catering team (HCL) prepare delicious and nutritional meals which are freshly cooked on site each day.
We operate a ‘pupil choice’ menu where children can choose which lunch option they would prefer each morning. They offer a three week rotating menu which changes twice a year with the seasons. There are always four choices from the following: a hot meat meal (Red), a hot vegan meal (Purple), a hot vegetarian meal (Green), a jacket potato option (Blue) and a sandwich option (Yellow).
Meals are ordered and paid directly by parents online using the School Gateway system.
