Catering

Innovate

Innovate is the new catering partner at St Laurence School.


Our aim, along with the school, is to provide all students with an exceptional catering experience. Our very talented Executive Chef and the fantastic catering team will be serving exciting menus packed with healthy ingredients, that are full of variety, and with loads of interesting new things to try. It’s important that the food tastes as good as it looks, and we’re sure you won’t be disappointed.


Up to date menus and tariff information are available to download below.


What’s on the menu?
Innovate has long been considered the most inventive school caterer and that’s because we’re very clear about our food. All our dishes are prepared every day using quality, fresh and seasonal ingredients that are responsibly sourced. As well as ensuring the food on the plate is healthy, we want our customers to understand the importance of eating the right foods and help them with their food and nutrition journey. Here’s a taste of what’s to come:

  • A huge selection of 'grab and go' items including baguettes, paninis, burritos and salads to name a few, all now using our barcode system to help speed up the queues.
     

  • A variety of healthy, tasty main meals prepared fresh every day from carefully selected ingredients. The menu will follow a similar weekly pattern so you know what to expect, providing over 35 choices each day in addition to the ever popular chef specials, fortnightly themed events and loyalty schemes.
     

  • Our Street Vibes range, global street food that tours the world. It’s always changing; from Korean fried chicken, Chinese bao buns, to Greek souvlaki, there’s always something new to try!
     

  • A salad bar bursting with homemade healthy salads such as pomegranate quinoa, roasted sweet potato and rocket, or chilli, orange and beetroot. All pre-boxed and ready to be collected.
     

  • Theme days; Harvest Week, Chinese New Year, British Pie Week, Olympics and Love British Food Fortnight and many more.

I have a free school meal allowance, what can I have?
We want to ensure that all of our customers have access to a healthy nutritious meal and, with this in mind, we ask anyone with an FSM allowance to select any items up to the daily allowance. However, we ask that this includes a hot main meal, hot wrap, baguette or other nutritious snack plus either a hot pudding, fruit pot or freshly-made cake. They can also choose to switch the pudding for a drink, if they’d prefer.

 

The £2.80 daily allowance will be enough for a hot meal but sensible decisions must be made by your child on how to use their allowance each day.

Biometric Payment System
We are a cashless school. All student accounts should be paid through ParentPay. If you have any difficulty setting up your ParentPay account, please contact the school using the details on the Contact Us page.

Students will pay for their food and refreshments using a Biometric cashless catering system using a fingerprint scan.

​​​​​For 6th Form students only, in addition to biometric payments we also accept card payments, Apple Pay™ and Google Pay™.
