School Dinners
Due to covid 19 changes needed to be introduced to dinner times to ensure all year groups do not mix, areas are cleaned after each setting and the children had the chance to play outside with their peer group safely.
An additional dining hall experience has been created in the KS2 hall for all KS1 children and KS2 children continue to use the main dining hall.
From the 12th October a hot meal option will be introduced back onto the menu. This 2 week menu has been created with the children, focusing on popular choices. The school council representatives will be collecting more ideas from the children throughout the year and these will be shared with the cooks and menus will be changed each term.
The children will still have an option at lunchtime. This would be either a hot meal or a pack lunch option.
Thorpepark is committed to providing its children with delicious, well balanced and nutritious meals. Food is freshly prepared on school site.
Further information
Every term there is an International Food Choice week where staff select food from different nations and serve to the children.
Pupils can be paid Thorpetons if they choose a food they have never eaten before.
