We have two fantastic cooks here at Sheldwich who prepare and cook everything on the premises. They work for CH&Co (previously Principal Catering Ltd) who source all fresh meat, vegetables and fruit locally. We can cater for any dietary needs e.g.coeliac, dairy intolerance, allergies including eggs and nuts, vegetarians etc. If you would like to meet our cooks, to discuss a particular food related issue, please do not hesitate to call us on 01795 532779 or come to the school office.
