The School’s caterers operate a cafeteria which gives a good choice of food at reasonable prices. The canteen is open throughout lunch and breaktime. Separate arrangements are made for those boys who prefer to bring packed lunches. If a pupil forgets to bring in his packed lunch, he should check with the General Office to see if a parent has brought it in for him. Unfortunately, the school is unable to ‘deliver’ packed lunches to pupils. If, for any reason, a boy needs to leave the premises at lunch time, a note must be sent by parents to the Form Tutor explaining the circumstances. |
