School Meals

At Laurus Ryecroft our catering services are provided by Dolce, a market leader delivering catering and support services to schools across the UK.

We are committed to developing healthy eating habits by offering nutritious, tasty and appealing versions of current favourites, all freshly prepared each day by our on-site catering team.

Our menus provide a balanced mix of nutritious and enjoyable options, fully compliant with government legislation. We also ensure that students, staff and visitors with dietary requirements are well catered for.

Catering Times

  • Breakfast 7.30am – 8.15am
  • Mid-morning break 10.35am – 10.55am
  • Lunch 12.45pm – 1.25pm

It is possible for students to bring a packed lunch. We do not allow students to be off-site at lunchtime, even with parental permission.

Cashless Cafeteria

Please note that our canteen is cashless. All payments should be made via MyChildAtSchool(MCAS) online or at a PayPoint facility. Should you require further information, please contact the school.

The default daily limit for canteen purchases is £6. Parents and carers can alter this limit by emailing [email protected]. Students with a debt over £2.50 will not be able to make further purchases, so we encourage regular monitoring of account balances.
