St Dunstan's Kitchen
Our mission: to teach children what quality food looks and tastes like, expanding curiosity about food and shaping their future health.
At St Dunstan’s College we believe food is way more than a meal. Lunch in particular is a wonderfully enriching part of daily life at St Dunstan’s. A chance for your child to decompress, unwind and socialise, as well as enjoy delicious, freshly-made food, prepared on site each day. Lunch is also a chance for us to take your child on a journey. Not only on how to make mealtimes fun, exploratory and quirky but to gently open their minds to sustainability, the importance of using locally grown, seasonal, produce and to help them build strong and healthy relationships with food.
At lunchtime, all students have an abundance of choice, including hot meal options, including our popular ‘street food’ stand, a salad bar, a fruit bar, soup, pasta and jacket potatoes. The menus, made up of classic and innovative dishes, as well as authentic international cuisines, are interesting, vibrant and gently push those taste bud boundaries! With balanced, healthy options, and dietary requirements catered for, your child will always find something they like.
We partner with Holroyd Howe to provide this high-quality catering experience. Holroyd Howe operates solely within the independent school sector and as a specialist caterer, they have a deep understanding of student needs and genuinely care about what goes into the food they create.
We work hand in glove with Holroyd Howe to make sure they deliver quality, nutritional, delicious and interesting food, with sustainability and local supply chains underpinning everything they do, for your child and all in our community, every day!

The school has adopted a well-structured programme that ensures that pupils learn the value of a healthy and balanced diet’
