Boarding Schools

School cafeteria management that makes your students smile.


Food is the heart of the home, and for prospective parents and students living away, your cafeteria is a keystone of your school’s reputation and appeal.

Cleanliness and efficiency are the basics, but meeting the nutritional needs of students and warm, consistent service takes you to the next level – and can be incredibly difficult to deliver internally.

Cater Plus school cafeteria management takes care of all the details, while serving as an asset to your educational offering.

Fun, healthy, delicious!
Good food can be a comfort to students missing home and their family, and we serve up tried and tested favourites that even fussy eaters will love. Cater Plus menus are based on fresh, seasonal foods to avoid added fat, salt and sugar. We partner with dieticians and follow the Ministry of Health Healthy Eating Guidelines to ensure our meals are well-presented, tasty and meet nutritional guidelines for adolescents.

Special Dietary Needs
New Zealanders are more diverse than ever, more dietary options are available, and international students often have different needs. We are sensitive to lifestyle, cultural and medical requirements and can offer delicious options that are:
• Vegetarian
• Vegan
• Halal
• Nut free
• Gluten free
• Egg/ seafood /dairy free

Events and Meetings
Food is the key to building links, fostering relationships, and setting the social scene, and we can support you as a gracious host with catering for all your meetings and events.

We love getting involved in school fundraising projects too! Whether you need refreshments for a student art exhibition or kitchen setup and provisioning for your own Master Chef competition, we are raring to go!

Developing Healthy Food Habits
Developing healthy food habits is essential, and what better way to encourage students to think more critically about food choices than to get them directly involved?

Cater Plus menus send consistent healthy eating messages, but we can also help you with demonstrations and participative workshops that teach kids the basics of cooking and nutrition.



Camps and Holiday Programmes
Cater Plus can manage your food service all through the year, weekends and after hours. For special events such as camps and holiday programmes, we often co-ordinate with volunteers and can help support and monitor them to meet food and occupational safety standards.
