Food Explorers
Every Food Explorer menu is made up of tasty dishes packed full of nutrients, with each meal offering Food Explorers at least 3 of their 5 a day.
Our theme days offer lots of new flavours to explore and include competitions for pupils to win Food Explorer prizes.
Most of our schools will offer three choices of a Food Explorer hot main meal, including a vegetarian or vegan option, a selection of pasta pots, jacket potatoes or a sandwich.
Every Food Explorer is offered vegetables, side salad, bread and drinking water with their main meal. For dessert, fresh fruit and yoghurt is offered as an alternative to the homemade dessert of the day.
Our menus...
Our menus are on a three-week cycle and change every six months; after the Easter holidays to our Spring/Summer menu and after October half-term to our Autumn/Winter menu.
Autumn Winter Menu November 2025 - March 2026
Menus are planned to comply to the current School Food Standards.
We endeavour to serve food as specified on the menu. However, there are some circumstances when this isn’t possible. You can be assured that these instances will be kept to an absolute minimum.
