Healthy eating for healthy minds
At BIC Sa Porrassa, our lunches are freshly prepared daily by an external catering company, Mallorca Catering, who offer healthy school lunches, using where possible fresh, locally sourced meat, vegetables and fruit as well as taking into consideration allergies and food preferences. Fresh salad and fruit are always available.
The school meals are not included in the tuition fees. Lunch should be pre-ordered and pre-paid online. Lunch menus are provided each month and are available online upon registration.
School lunch is served every day. There is always a vegetarian option. Other dietary requirements are also catered for. If you have any requirements please contact the catering company directly - cateringservice.saporrassa@balearesint.net.
To order your child's school lunch you will be required to have your unique online credentials. An email containing a link for your child/ren will be sent directly from our meal management system. If you wish to order school meals/snacks please click on the provided link (if you have more than one child you will need to click on all the links to add them all to one account, orders for each of your children can be made independently). As part of the registration, a security code will be emailed to you to confirm each registration. Please note the link is valid for 48 hours after this time you should request a new link and this will be sent to you. If you have not received the link or have any questions in this regard, please email our chef Mr Jerry directly at cateringservice.saporrassa@balearesint.net indicating your child's name and Year Group.
Please do not try to use your mobile phone number to register, the system is programmed to only accept your email address to register.

To avoid any allergic reactions please remember we are a NUT FREE school – please do not send any nuts into school as part of a snack or a lunch.
Packed Lunch
At BIC, we understand that not all children may want a school lunch, therefore it is not compulsory and children are also given the option to bring a packed lunch. Packed lunches need to be brought into school in suitable containers (not glass), and all items must be labelled with the child's name. Please note that due to local regulations, we are not able to heat up any pack lunches within the school grounds and therefore packed lunches need to be cold meals.
Healthy Morning Snacks
Students are also welcome to bring in their own healthy snacks to enjoy at break time.
For the safety of our students and staff we operate a strict 'no nuts' policy within the school.
Suitable snack: sandwiches, cubes of cheese, fruit, cereal bars, savoury biscuits, small savoury snacks, chopped carrots/cucumber/cherry tomatoes, small plain cake, small tubs of yoghurt (in cooler weather), juice or water.
Please refrain from the following: sweets (candy) or chocolate; nuts (because of allergies of other students); food that needs to be reheated or refrigerated; canned or glass bottled drinks; sugary or energy drinks.
We also ask students to bring with them a refillable water bottle, flask or sealable cup (no glass please) each day and labelled with their name.
