Doncaster Schools Catering

Welcome to Doncaster Schools Catering

Everyday, our professionally qualified catering teams provide around 20,000 meals in 122 schools throughout Doncaster. Our meals offer an exciting choice of healthy, fresh food at excellent value.

We believe that school meals represent the best option in terms of contributing to a healthy diet and value for money, when compared to other sources of food available to children for their mid day meal, i.e. packed lunches.

All our menus comply with current food and nutritional standards. 

We don’t use additives which are harmful, mechanically recovered meat, or genetically modified ingredients.  

We do serve fresh fruit and vegetables, fresh bread and healthy drinks such as pure fruit juices, milk drinks and smoothies, along with the guaranteed inclusion of fish which is rich in Omega 3.  

As well as offering a choice of meals each day in most schools, some schools have a ‘family service’ where two pupils serve their table with food. We also provide special menus for young people from different ethnic groups and where young people need to follow a special diet as recommended by a doctor or hospital, we can make suitable arrangements.

We use a selection of Fair Trade goods in selected sites including fruit juice, tea, coffee, sugar, pasta, rice, sultanas and cocoa.

Since September 2006, our pork has been locally reared at Marr Grange. 

Taster sessions are held in schools to introduce pupils to new dishes and receive feedback. 

Doncaster Councils School Catering Service works closely with schools and can provide classroom support with nutritional talks and food sampling.

If you feel that your child may be entitled to free school meals, please contact us on 01302 734123.
