Sample Lunch Menu
We are 100% committed to ensuring that our students, staff and any visitors are always sufficiently satiated to tackle the busy day ahead with both energy and vigour. Ours is a culinary philosophy that celebrates diversity, quality and freshness. We craft menus that not only include British favourites, but also introduce the girls to the flavours of more global cuisine.
From the sophisticated tastes of France and Spain to the vibrant spices of India and Italy, we are proud to bring the world’s culinary delights to The Maynard’s dining tables. Our commitment to quality extends to our ingredients: we prioritise seasonal foods, showcasing Devon’s finest produce from meat, fruit and vegetables sourced from local farms in the area. Even our eggs are free range and laid within 15 miles of school!
At our peak in the school year, we serve lunch to around 85% of our students, ranging from Pre-Prep to Sixth Form, not to mention that the vast majority of staff also opt for a school meal – endorsement indeed! And every day, we totally ensure that our menu caters to a wide array of dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan and allergen-specific options.
It is compulsory for pupils up to Upper 3 (Year 7) to have school meals. Older girls can opt to have school lunches on a termly basis, or they may bring in a packed lunch each day. For a taste of what may be served on an average week, take a look at the sample lunch menu below. Parents can view menus week-to-week on the Parent Portal.
