Lunch Menu

School Meals

All meals are freshly cooked on site daily by our Catering Manager (Donna) and her team and include:

  • A main course with a vegetarian option
  • Fresh unlimited salad bar
  • Choice of desserts including fresh fruit

Cost: £2.80 per meal
The Pupil Leaders at Takeley help to develop the menu each term. Our menu repeats every two
weeks. To make meal booking simpler, choose the options your child enjoys for both weeks of the
cycle. The current menu is valid up until the summer holidays so you can book all the way up to this
date if you like!
Here is a reminder of what to do:

  • How to book (it takes 2 minutes):
  • Log into the MCAS app
  • Select your child's lunch option (hot meal or packed lunch)
  • Book daily, weekly, termly – or all the way to the summer!

Important: Even if your child has packed lunch every day, please still select 'Packed Lunch' on the
app. This helps us keep accurate numbers
Important: Please help us maintain our "nut free zone" by not bringing nuts into school. This
protects children with serious allergies.
