About BCS

Food

The food given to the boys is prepared in our own kitchens by our own staff managed by the School Caterer assisted by a Kitchen Supervisor and a Dining Hall Supervisor. The food is healthy and wholesome and our baked beans are well-known and widely appreciated as is our Kadhi and Rajmah. Breakfast consists of a porridge and eggs or a vegetarian equivalent and toast and butter and jam, accompanied by milk and tea. Sometimes parathas or dosas are served. Every boy gets a minimum of 500ml of milk a day. Lunch is usually rice and roti with dal and a vegetable and is rounded off with fruit. Tea time snacks range from cakes to patties, biscuits, sandwiches or samosas. Dinner is rice and roti with a non-vegetarian and a vegetarian preparation with a sweet or pudding. Soup and cutlets or roast or Chinese food are also great favourites. once a week at least, or oftener, the boys are subjected to a formal meal complete with tablecloths and napkins and cutlery where they have to practice western table manners. Care is taken while preparing these special menus so that the boys are exposed to as many different kinds of food as possible and to familiarize them with the techniques of handling crockery and cutlery. Parents are most welcome to come in at any time to join the boys as they eat and to partake of a meal with them.
