At Streatham & Clapham High School, girls are encouraged to develop healthy, relaxed and mindful eating habits. In our welcoming dining hall, pupils take the time to enjoy nutritious, freshly prepared meals. The dining experience is designed to support relaxation and socialisation, offering a variety of options including vegetarian, halal, soups, salads and desserts. Each dish is made on-site, and three portion sizes are available, allowing pupils to choose the serving that best meets their needs, ensuring a balanced and satisfying meal.
We are an “allergen aware school” with no nut products permitted in school or at school events. However, there are a number of other allergens, as well as nuts, that we manage in our Health & Safety processes and catering. We continue to be nut-free, but this also points to our vital awareness of other allergens in order that we minimise risks from allergies for pupils and staff. Further details are available online.
