Life at Collegiate
Dining Hall
Meal times are an important part of each day. Spotless Services (NZ) Ltd (now trading as Alliance Catering) has been providing the catering at Collegiate since 1990 and strives to provide meals that are both liked by students and ensures our student’s nutritional and growth needs are met.
Menus are changed each term to ensure variety, maximising the use of seasonal produce and meeting government dietary guidelines specific to adolescents.
Working in partnership between Alliance Catering, Student Reps and WCS Staff discuss requirements, preferences and good ideas.
Menu planning and Student Education
Menu planning is based on the SNAP program (Spotless Nutritional Assessment Programme) which ensures adequate representation of all food groups in appropriate quantities. Menus are reviewed by a qualified dietician for nutritional suitability while cooking methods and ingredient choices limit the use of saturated and trans fats, salts and sugars.
Café at Collegiate
Café at Collegiate provides a completely different service to the Dining Hall next door; the café has a modern design and high street style. It’s a space that provides a central campus environment for students, staff, parents and the wider WCS Community to meet, relax and enjoy a drink or a bite to eat. Payment by cash or EFTPOS.
Health Centre
The Health Centre is open Monday to Friday to attend to any medical or sporting requirements and can refer students to physiotherapy and other agencies. We have support from the Aramoho Health Centre doctors who visit our site weekly and are available for appointments.
