Food

We don’t send girls to school on an empty stomach – anything but! We know that if our girls are well-fed and nourished, they will perform better inside and outside the classroom.

For us food is all about balance. We want our girls to enjoy their food and to treat it both as something to provide them with fuel for a busy day and to enjoy with their friends. We take advice from the experts and make sure we offer plenty of delicious, healthy options for all tastes and diets, from cultural or religious requirements to sports nutrition.

Most meals are served in the Dining Hall although at the weekends, girls often enjoy a relaxed breakfast in house. Girls can also use our well-equipped boarders’ kitchens to fix themselves snacks outside meal times and are encouraged to share dishes from their home countries or cultures. There are also termly suppers with an international theme and special house suppers where girls select the theme and menu.

As a boarder, food is so important and school certainly recognises this. As a vegetarian it’s so great to still have options and different meals every day. The best thing is themed suppers – Chinese supper was definitely a highlight! A cooked breakfast every morning was one of the main reasons I started boarding, it was so lovely to wake up to a selection of warm food.
