School Meals
At Highfield we value healthy eating and encourage our children to make informed choices about what they eat. Our caterers, Harrison Catering, are passionate about providing nutritional, tasty food, which is locally sourced, of high quality and the majority of which is prepared in our kitchen using fresh ingredients.
Menus are based on seasonal fresh foods offering a choice of hot, homemade dishes, one of which is always vegetarian.
Harrison offer a three week cycle which changes twice a year, running from February-October and October to February. They also offer regular promotional days and themed events in line with school curriculum and to keep our children excited about food.
Lunchtime is an important part of our children's social development and a good opportunity to practise their social skills. We encourage our children to be independent and each child collects a tray and lines up at the server to choose from the daily options. Jugs of water are available on each table for the children to pour drinks for themselves and for their friends.
We fully support the government initiative of Universal Infant Free School Meals and have a very high uptake for school lunches. UIFSM is available to all children in our Infants school. Currently Junior school meals are free for all pupils under the Mayor's scheme: Free School Meals | London City Hall
