School Canteen
Hot meals, delivered by a caterer, are offered to students who want them on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 11:45 a.m. to 1 p.m. Children are served in rooms set up for this purpose. After finishing their meal, they can play and relax for a while in the outdoor courtyard. We favour seasonal, fresh, eco-labelled, locally-sourced, and organically-grown food. Thus, the products are mainly sourced from Geneva (Genève Région Terre Avenir label), from Switzerland, or alternatively, from the EU (sea fish for instance).
The varied and balanced menus (according to the green fork label of our caterer) are made available to parents here and displayed in the School.
