Millais has a modern well-equipped kitchen designed for the efficient preparation of fresh, healthy and nutritious meals on the school site each day.
The school has worked hard to incorporate the Government’s new food standards for schools as part of our way of encouraging all our pupils to lead healthier lifestyles. Parents who send their children to school with ‘dinner money’ can be assured that they will benefit from the wide range of hot and cold meals provided in the Millais School Canteen. Main meals change daily on a three-week menu cycle.
The canteen is open for breakfast (7.45-8.15am), at break (10.30-10.45am) and lunch times (12.35-1.00pm).
At Millais we operate a cashless catering system and use biometrics for payment at the tills. Parents can put money onto their child's ParentPay account. Students can purchase a main meal with vegetables with a choice of dessert for £3.00. See Featured Content for full price list. A wide variety of snacks can be purchased from the School Canteen including homemade sandwiches and wraps from as low as £1.60. Boxed main course salads, including Chicken Caesar Salad, Pasta Salad, and Potato Salad, and boxed side salads, prices range from £1.10.
We always provide a vegetarian main meal option with favourites like Pizza, Jacket Potatoes, Stir Fries, Pasta King, Curry, stuffed peppers and vegetarian cheeseburgers with Salsa. There is something on offer to suit every taste.
To the best of our knowledge, we do not intentionally use any products that contain nuts or nut by-products in our school menus. Due to current labelling regulations and other food brought into school, we cannot declare that school is nut free.
Some of our menu items contain seeds and other allergens. There is a small risk that tiny traces of these may be in any other dish or food served here. We understand the dangers to those with severe allergies. An allergen booklet, detailing the allergens for the meals we serve is available to download on this page.
Please ask a member of the Catering Staff for information on the ingredients we serve.
We can offer gluten free rolls and salads but these must be ordered first thing and paid for in advance. Please ensure students are down by the kitchen, Dining Hall, by 8.30am speaking to Catering Manager on the morning that they require something.
If you have any comments, questions or ideas that the school would find useful please contact the Catering Manager on 01403 267568 or send us a message on our Contact us page. Together we can make a bright and healthy future for all our students.
