School catering


Retention brochure front pageContract Catering Services makes a significant contribution to the health and wellbeing of children in Tower Hamlets everyday. We are proud to be a valued school meals provider to the council, catering to 59 schools and nurseries across the borough.

Our meals are made from fresh ingredients, and we work hard to source as many fresh and local ingredients as possible, so our meals are great for the environment as well as our children.

We serve meals in a relaxed and friendly environment which allows children to socialise and enjoy their food. A quality balanced meal enhances learning and development and helps children to reach their potential in the classroom.
