Residential menu

Our commitment to the environment extends to the food we serve.

Catering for residentials is provided by Waltham Forest Catering 2022 Winner UK Greenest School Menu League.

You will be served with three freshly prepared vegetarian or vegan, healthy meals each day, with plenty of variety available.

To encourage a sense of teamwork, at the end of each meal we ask that students help to clean and tidy the tables and floors of The Lodge.

Students will be instructed as to what to do with their own plates, cups and cutlery.

Jobs which need to be done at the end of each meal:
•    Put food waste into the Ridan food composter
•    Clear away any other crockery or cutlery which has been left on the tables
•    Ask kitchen staff for cloths and water to wipe down the tables
•    Sweep the floor (brown bristled brushes) and collect into a dustpan to be put into the dustbin
