Food For Life

Great Missenden school is committed to a policy of healthy eating. We are a gold ‘Food for Life’ school - one of only 20 in the whole country and the only school in Buckinghamshire to achieve this award.

API is our school meals provider, and meals are ordered and paid for online via the School Food United website.

We are fortunate to have a school kitchen with a fully trained kitchen team who prepare, cook and serve nutritious meals.

Packed lunches / snacks

Children may choose to bring in a healthy packed lunch and midmorning snack. Crisps, sweets and chocolate bars are not permitted in lunch boxes.

Mid-morning snacks should be a fruit based or savory based item. Please provide a named water bottle.

Nuts (and products that contain nuts) are not permitted in school as some of our children have severe allergies.

Allergies

On starting the school we ask for a Health Care Plan to be completed with any dietary requirements and for these to also be noted on Aspens Select if your child is having school lunches. We cater for a wide range of dietary needs.

Details of any allergies or food intolerances need to be coordinated with the Food For Life Co-ordinator on ffl@gmglt.co.uk
