Since "one must eat to live and not live to eat… " ( Molière )

The cafeteria is a subject that in particular grasps our attention.

For the forth consecutive year, we are closely following this subject.

In 1999, our main concern was to obtain the traceability of the food served to our children (due to “mad cow” disease). We requested meat that was ‘labeled’ or biological, and the mayor’s office responded in our favor.

As of November 2001, the food is completely biological

Today, all means are cooked on site. Our children benefit from family cooking following strict sanitary regulations.

For 2 years, a working group was put in place by the mayor’s office represented by his Delegate for School Affaires, Monsieur Alain PLE, allowing us to follow

- the balance, diversity and quality of the food proposed
- the hygiene: a request was made to allow children to wash their hands before meals as well as a proposition to provide paper napkins
- the surveillance of the children and the service
- the analysis of the water: at times of strong rain, the mayor’s office serves bottled water as a precaution
- the‘semaine du goût’: participation by the CM2 classes in elaboration the menus and workshops on taste. Each year, the mayor’s office invites a chef from a well-known restaurant.
- the noise: there have been a lot of complaints about the high noise level; the parents have proposed to put in place phonic insulation to absorb part of the noise. The creation of a future cafeteria blocks such an investment (matter to be followed…) For the pre-school, the mayor’s office created 2 meal services so as to allow the children to be well received and eat with a reduced noise level
- The security on the way to the cafeteria: security barriers directing the children to the tunnel must be changed. In case of rain, the mayor’s office put in place a bus to drive the pre-school children to the cafeteria.
