Catering
For any residential we can provide the catering, no matter how large your group or dietary needs. Our head chef Michiel is a also a trained secondary school teacher and brings incredibly delicious home cooked meals to the table whilst educating the young people about healthy eating.
We believe tasty, wholesome home cooked food provides students with the greatest energy to keep them fuelled all day. We strive to provide locally sourced, organic or fair trade produce and ingredients.
We believe that eating good quality healthy food is crucial to ensuring young people get the best experience whilst on their adventures. All the ingredients we use are fresh from the butchers, grocers and the bakery. We try to source local, organic or fair-trade products to support local businesses and cooperatives internationally.
