Knights Table

Welcome to the Knights Table! The Knights Table crew provides lunch and morning break service at Frederica Academy each full day that school is in session. The Knights Table is located in Hamilton Hall, and there are tables for dining in Hamilton Hall as well as outside in the Berte Bistro or Pavilion.

The goal of the Knights Table is to balance good nutrition in our food offerings along with what the students want to eat! Please check the menu in the Sunday email each week or on the school website to see what is being offered for the main entrée. This year we will have a salad choice in the cooler. These will be featured on the menu as well. When the weather cools off, there will be a soup most days, and you can always find prepackaged items like yogurt, string cheese and prepared sandwiches available for purchase. Powerades, Body Armor, fruit juices, milk and water are also found in the cooler each day.

Monday is Pasta Day with a wide range of offerings there from lasagna to spaghetti Bolognese. The details will be on the menu each week. Mexican style food is offered on Tuesdays, and Fridays are always Pizza Day. The Knights Table showcases their culinary skills on the other days of the week.

Kindergarten through 12^th grade will go through the lunch line each day to make their lunch purchases. Of course, students are welcome to bring their own lunch and eat with their class (microwaves are available). If you are sending your child with something to be heated, please be sure that they are trained in how to use a microwave and how to handle hot items.

Pre-K students eat in their classrooms. Again, students are welcome to bring their own lunch, OR you can order either a Bento Box or a “Big Kids” lunch each week. The order form is included here or is available on the website. These forms are due to your child's classroom teacher no later than Monday morning each week. Stay tuned to the Sunday, August 6, school e-newsletter for the August lunch menu.

For Middle and Upper School, we have an "express" lane which will allow our students that do not wish to eat the hot entrée but wish to take items and/or drinks from the cooler. We continue to have the service line that allows students to "customize" and enjoy the hot lunch. Having two lines allows students to move through the line more quickly.

Middle School and Upper School also have access most days to Morning Break, which is offered daily at 10:00 a.m. Offerings change daily and include hot breakfast items, like eggs, grits, breakfast casserole and breakfast biscuits. All of the cooler items, such as drinks and other lite bites, are also available. 

Please be sure to provide allergy information for your child(ren) to Nurse Pope as the Knights Table staff works really hard to be aware of allergies and to ensure students are being safe. We also ask that you discuss what students are able to purchase in the lunchroom as it is difficult for lunchroom staff to turn children away or police what they are purchasing. If you do not wish for your child to charge things in the lunchroom, please stress that with them.  

We are excited to serve the students this year and we welcome parent and student suggestions all year long. Please email us at knightstable@fredericaacademy.org with any comments or questions.
