School Catering
Introducing Caterlink Ltd, our school caterers at The Rookery
Welcome to The Rookery, our bright and airy school canteen. We operate a cashless system of payment at Rooks Heath, whereby a biometric 'finger-printing' system connects to your Parent Pay account. You can top up the money in your account whenever need be, as well as monitor what your child has been purchasing while in school. As well as The Rookery, we have two more 'Grab & Go' food stations on the premises, so that your child is easily able to purchase food and or drinks.
Catering at Rooks Heath School is provided by our catering partner, Caterlink Ltd, who cater for high schools and primary schools across the borough. Break snacks and lunches are served from the Rookery (our canteen) and a wide range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian, hot and cold food is always on offer.
Caterlink are committed to sourcing ingredients with assured provenance from local and regional suppliers. We use produce with high standards of animal welfare - for example, Red Tractor meat, RSPCA assured free range eggs and Marine Stewardship approved (MSC) fish.
Menus are well balanced, exciting and focus on great value and healthy options.
Allergen information is always available and special dietary requirements can usually be met. Please find our current menus below, as well as prices and "meal deal" options.
Students entitled to free school meals are able to use their FSM allowance to buy a meal deal at lunchtime.
Providing an environmentally friendly service is important to the School and to Caterlink. One of the most significant ways we can achieve this is by reducing plastics. Caterlink will therefore not be providing water in plastic bottles, but in more eco-friendly packaging (cans and cartons). Drinking water will still be freely available from water fountains and within the Rookery itself where students can top up their own reusable bottles.
ParentPay is the cashless system used for all payments at Rooks Heath School. New students will receive their login details when they join us. Log in here: ParentPay.
