We are delighted to announce our 2014 primary

school meal menus, which offer a superb range of

healthy and nutritious foods.
All dishes produced by Shire Services meet the
governments Nutritional Standards and are
analysed using the Saffron Nutritional Analysis
System.
Shire Services is committed to the Soil Associations
Food for Life initiative. Meals are prepared using
fresh local ingredients. Fish products meet the
Marine Stewardship Council standards (MSC), and
the ingredients used do not contain any of the 22
