Food reactions
No more hunger games
A new year brings on changes through our campus doors with one major change that’s made its way into our college, the addition of Thomas Frank LTD. A British based catering company who took over the school’s canteen this summer brings a revamped, refreshing and vibrant array of dishes that are all healthy, locally sourced and extremely tasty. With the addition of the caterer also comes a revamped canteen, bringing a brand-new dining area in which student can come to enjoy the great food on offer, relax after lessons and to socialize with other students with the addition of the football table which many games and tournaments will take place, creating an environment where new core memories will be created for many students. The new menu includes a soup of the day, a selection from the main dishes (Dish of the Day, Vegetarian Dish and an International Dish), a side and a dessert. This changes weekly offering variety and new flavours frequently. So, while I am sold on this welcome addition to the college, what do others think about it?

“I’m glad there is a new canteen considering the previous canteen was overpriced and didn’t have variety, I’m sad to see the old operator leave as has been here for many years but it was a necessary change that the school has ultimately benefited from” – Sierk IB student.
“I find it to be a questionable change. The prices are very good and the menu is good so we get a good value for it. However, I find the quality not as high and didn’t live up to the expectation that was perceived the change would’ve had. I would recommend more snack for throughout the day and especially for 10:00 break as it’s a shorter break with not enough time for a full meal. It should also offer more traditional snacks and dishes to represent the Maltese islands” –John*
