16 May 2023
Children in schools across the Midlands were treated by Educaterers to a special menu in celebration of the King's Coronation.

Educaterers provide over 120,000 meals a week in more than 200 schools. They serve up delicious and nutritious meals to primary schools in Warwickshire, Leicestershire, Oxfordshire, Birmingham, Coventry, and Staffordshire.

The special Coronation menu, which was served on Friday 5th May, included a street party sandwiches, filled wraps, pizza fingers, Quorn dippers, fruit and vegetable sticks, followed by iced celebration bunting biscuits, or ice cream. For those staying indoors for lunch, Great British fish & chips, breaded vegetable fingers with chips, peas and baked beans were served, followed by iced celebration cake, or ice cream. 

Vicki Barnard, managing director of Educaterers, said: "We wanted to help children celebrate the King's Coronation in style. With the special Coronation menu, we offered an opportunity for children to enjoy a delicious and memorable meal while celebrating a significant event in British history. 

"We work closely with our school catering teams to come up with novel ways to get schoolchildren engaged at lunch times and enjoying an assortment of freshly prepared foods throughout the year, so as always, our appreciation goes to our brilliant staff who are our greatest asset."
