As a school, we have partnered with Nourish to provide our school meals. We are very lucky that our meals are cooked on site at Downsview and our cooks know the children really well.
Our current school dinner menu:
Nourish
For many children starting school will be an excellent opportunity to try new foods and for some, it will be more vital with school being their main source of daily meals. Nourish wants to ensure that every child can access a nutritious meal.
They offer seasonal favourites whilst enabling children to sample something they may not have tried before. Their meals are both delicious and nutritious and carefully portioned to control food waste whilst catering to various appetites.
At Nourish they know that every school is different, and in order to appeal to the widest audience they tailor their menu accordingly. This individual and bespoke approach is a key component of the high uptake levels they achieve.
Allergies
Nourish have a robust allergens and intolerances policy in place. All of thier team are trained on the importance of their procedures. Further to this, they provide enhanced training to at least two ‘Allergen Champions’ per school who will have completed the Allergen Accreditation course. They conduct half-termly refresher training to ensure all team members understand clearly our processes.
Through the use of their various systems, they have ways to support schools and parents in ordering meals safely.
