Our main aim is to ensure that students receive a healthy, balanced and nutritionally adequate meals

to provide them with the nutrients needed for health, growth and development.

Our food ethos

Inspired by the diversity of our college community, our chefs take advantage of freshly sourced, seasonal ingredients to cook delicious, authentic cuisine from around the world.

Eating a balanced diet throughout the school day not only ensures optimum growth and development, but it also provides for our students’ academic and physical activity, energy levels and nutrient requirements.

College Dining Halls

Our two dining halls are conveniently located near teaching premises. The menu is varied and includes ‘Eastern’ and ‘Western’ options. Special diets including halal and vegan can usually be catered for on request.

Students can enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner in the College dining hall during term time, half terms and during Easter. Please note that on Sunday we serve brunch and dinner only.
