The on-campus dining room is staffed by professional chefs presenting a new menu each week. The school administration is attentive to the health of students and monitors the supply of food, cooking and serving food. Every week, students have a full lunch in the dining room, choosing dishes from two options: regular and vegetarian. Students are offered soups, cereals, vegetables and fruits, meat and dairy products. Also, each student will be able to ask the cooks for individual preparation of the dish in connection with medical, religious or other grounds.

In the cafeteria, students will not be able to find carbonated drinks, chips, chocolate and other harmful snacks. School staff carefully monitor the food brought from home to avoid allergic reactions in other children.

• KG1 students eat in their classrooms to minimize the transition time from the classroom to the cafeteria. Students are encouraged to bring food that doesn't need to be reheated because the shortened day prevents the use of microwaves.
• Students in third grades and older visit the dining room on their own during their lunch break. Students can buy hot meals and drinks or choose salads and sandwiches from an assortment as additional options. Students can always bring their lunch from home, and there is a microwave oven to warm up the food.

Meals in the canteen are paid for by student cards. The cashless system is especially beneficial for parents of younger students, as purchases and balance are easy to control remotely.
