School catering information
September 2019 saw the much-anticipated launch of Olive Dining at Regent High School. This innovative, family-owned business provides a range of fresh and affordable food options, as well as a refitted Restaurant space and a brand new street market-style Food Cube next to the Pitch. Sixth Form students and staff can also make use of the Box Office cafe.
A team of student representatives from Years 7-10 helped staff and governors to select our new caterers, and there will be an ongoing student review group who meet with Olive Dining and Regent High School staff to ensure our food offering is the best it can be, and suited as much as possible to the tastes of our students and staff.
