Our School Cooks do their part in celebrating Children in Need

The ladies from the School Lunch Company joined in with the fun on Monday. They made fabulously tasty Pudsey Bear biscuits, and they wore Pudsey ears to make the day more special for the children, on this special day of fund-raising for Children in Need.

Recent testimonials from our Headteachers:

Here at Stonesfield we have the School Lunch Company and have done since the service was first established. We are very happy indeed with the provision, Les and Anne are excellent managers and I can recommend them without reservation. Our food is really good and our staff are well managed, Les always reacts very quickly to any queries and I am so pleased we moved over to SLC when we did. The children at school are involved in menu planning and the ingredients are fresh and locally sourced. Could not ask for more!

Headteacher, Stonesfield Primary School

For the past two years we have used The School Lunch Company and have been delighted with the difference in our meals. In our recent Year Six exit survey, children commented on how good the food was, and particularly mentioned the fact that they are regularly consulted on the menu and asked for their preferences. The quality of ingredients is much improved and parents value the fact that local suppliers are used. Les and his team are approachable and helpful, even coming to make a whole school picnic on the day our electricity went off! They have been supportive through the transition to universal free school meals for infants and ensured that we can meet demand even within the constraints of our very small kitchen space. I am proud to say that we cook meals on site, and believe that The School Lunch Company play a huge part in this successful aspect of our school.

Headteacher, Kidmore End School

The best thing about working with The School Lunch Company is their recognition that every school has individual catering needs. We especially like how hard the TSLC work with children in developing menus individually tailored to OUR school and as a result we have seen an increased up take in school meals and our children and parents are very positive about the quality of food on offer. We also very much appreciate the ongoing support we have received - including promoting school meals to new parents, the training and support offered to catering staff and assistance in servicing and procuring kitchen equipment.
