We have taken great care in selecting a local caterer: Revolution Food Sàrl based in nearby Geneva (website in French only). On 12th December 2017 our school and caterer jointly received the « Fourchette Verte – Ama Terra » label – a guarantee for healthy and balanced meals following strict guidelines.
