Recipes from the Whitehall Kitchen
We often get asked for recipes we have served to the children and here are a few you can print out. I hope you have fun cooking these dishes at home.
Beetroot brownie
On item that has been on our menu since Chef Glyn started here in the school is our beetroot and chocolate brownie.
The beetroot keeps the cake beautifully moist and gives a gorgeous, silky texture to the brownie.
This week we have also been using our own, home grown beetroot in the cake making it extra special.
Here is the current lunch menu
Our new menu from 2nd Sept 2024
If you have a particular allergy you are concerned about please use this allergy check list.
School Meals
The cost of school dinners are £2.50 per day, which is £12.50 per week. Payments for lunches can be made online through 'School Money' or can be handed in to your child’s class teacher on a Monday morning for the week or on the morning of the day your child wishes to stay for lunch. All monies must be in a sealed envelope with your child’s name/class and the days they are staying in for lunch. Any change will be returned to your child’s class the following morning.
The Kitchen Garden
The garden is starting to get full of life as summer is here. If only we could stop lugs and snails getting in at night........
But, despite our slimy visitors we are having a lot of success.
We now have a polytunnel, which means we can grow more salad during colder weather and grow more tomatoes and peppers in the summer.
This year Minos (our school site manager) has provided us with some seeds from his father in Greece. The 4 different varities of tomatoes from Minos are already strudy, healthy seedlings and watch this space for news on the apricot, peach and cherry seeds!
