WLA TRADITIONAL Autumn_Winter 25-26
The food children eat at school plays an important role in their wellbeing, and eating a well balanced diet will not only maintain and improve their health, but will also set them on the right track for later life. We understand this and that’s why we are passionate about serving fresh, high quality and locally sourced food that is cooked in our kitchen.
We’re thrilled to have been awarded a variety of accolades from the Bristol Better Eating group. At Aspens, we take the responsibility of feeding young people very seriously and our freshly-prepared, locally sourced food, created and served by experienced and enthusiastic staff ensures all our customers have access to healthy, nutritious, delicious food every school day to help them to learn and thrive in their educational environment.
Continuous improvement towards pupil nutrition will always be paramount to us. For example, we recently made a product swap from white bread mix to 50/50 and can expect a forecasted 23% increase in fibre in bread mixes (annual) alone as a result.
This fantastic achievement is a result of our team’s dedication and hard work towards making great school food memories.
Did you know that your child might be entitled to free school meals? For more information and details on how to claim, visit the Bristol City Council website.
Don’t think that your child can’t enjoy our great food if they have a special diet – they are an important part of our catering service. We can provide food if they have an intolerance, an allergy, or require an alternative choice due to religious beliefs.
Legislation requires caterers to provide allergen information on food sold that is served ‘unpackaged’. Aspens already cater for lots of children with allergies and we regularly check the information from suppliers to see if there have been any ingredient changes. It is still important that our customers talk to us so we can work together and continue to provide meals that are safe for them to eat.
