Healthy. Homemade. Convenient.

WSL offers a healthy, nutritious, freshly prepared, lunch Monday through Friday, in junior or regular portions. Lunch is cooked daily in our on-site kitchen by a professional cook, Geneva Cooper.

Fresh, High-Quality Food

  • We utilize as many organic foods and ingredients as possible.

  • Produce from the school’s student-run biodynamic gardens occasionally makes its way to the kitchen!

  • Meat is hormone/antibiotic free, if not organic.

  • Fruit is included in lunch – or on occasion a baked goodie.

  • Our baked-from-scratch treats contain no high-fructose corn syrup or hydrogenated oils.

Hidden Nutrition

We try to create meals that appeal to a range of ages and tastes. Many meals are even more wholesome than they sound, as we have ways of getting “stealth veggies” into dishes (which we do not emphasize in menu titles!).

Special Diets & Nut-free

We do our best to accommodate dietary restrictions. Lunches can usually be modified to be wheat-free, cow-milk-free, or vegetarian. WSL and our kitchen are nut-free (except for coconut), meaning we do not use nuts in any of our food or stock nuts in the kitchen.

2024-25 School Lunch Registration

Our hot lunch program is available to students in Grades 1-8 only. Nursery and kindergarten students enrolled in our Aftercare program NO LONGER need to purchase hot lunch. All EC meals are provided by the school and included in tuition. 

Our eighth grade class offers a Friday Pizza lunch option, which is managed directly by the class (not through the WSL kitchen). Details regarding pizza lunch pricing and schedule will be available in the Bulletin newsletter.
