The Dining Halls

The Dining Hall is situated in the heart of the school. This is a more formal dining area where scholars are seated at oak tables placed on chequer board flooring. It is set adjacent to the Lower School Office and Staff Room so that younger children in particular are close to support when they require it.  All meals are freshly prepared in the kitchens daily and Healthy School guidelines are adhered to without compromise. An arrangement whereby parents are able to pay for meals online is available. Our parents are also able to view a full list of the items bought by their children and even to restrict the purchase of certain items if desired. 

 

The Dining Hall is open for breakfast from 8am daily and is the venue for Morning Prep and Exam Prep during examinations season.

 

The Atrium Café

The Atrium Café is positioned next to the School Library. In addition to being open during break and lunch it is also open, along with the Library,  from 3:45pm for After School Prep from Monday to Thursday each week during term time. This provides a quiet area for study and the opportunity for a drink or snack for those staying on for further study.

 

The Coffee Shop

The School's original Coffee Shop, located in the Centre of Excellence for Mathematics, opened in 2012 and proved to be extremely popular with both scholars and staff alike. With fresh rolls made daily on the premises, scholars can choose from a variety of fillings. Hot food, such as pasta and sausage rolls, can also be purchased in the Coffee Shop, as can a variety of cakes and pastries. Hot drinks, such as tea, coffee and hot chocolate, are also available, alongside cold refreshments.
