The Dining Halls


The Dining Hall is situated in the heart of the school. This is a more formal dining area where scholars are seated at oak tables placed on chequer board flooring. It is set adjacent to the lower school office so that younger children in particular are close to support when they require it.  All meals are freshly prepared in the kitchens daily and Healthy School guidelines are adhered to without compromise. An arrangement whereby parents are able to pay for meals online is available. Our parents are also able to view a full list of the items bought by their children and even to restrict the purchase of certain items if desired. 


The Dining Hall is also open for breakfast from 8am daily and is the venue for Morning Prep.


The Atrium Cafe

The Atrium Cafe is positioned next to the Library. In addition to being open during break and lunch it is also open, along with the Library,  from 3:45 for After School Prep from Monday to Thursday each week during term time. This provides a quiet area for study and the opportunity for a drink or snack for those staying on for further study.


The Coffee Shop

The original School Coffee Shop in the Foxborough building which opened in 2012 proved to be extremely popular with both students and staff alike. With fresh rolls made daily on the premises, students can choose a variety of fillings. Hot food such as pasta and sausage rolls can also be purchased in the Coffee Shop, as can a variety of cakes and pastries. Vending machines are available for students to use during break/lunch time and dispense hot drinks such as tea, coffee and hot chocolate.
