Tamara, our head cook
Dragón, the American School of Torrelodones, believes in eating well and eating thoughtfully: it is good for how students feel, how they work and how they grow.
Food is central to how students develop. We design balanced menus made with fresh, local, sustainable ingredients, free of ultra-processed food and added sugars, and always matched to each stage of growing up.
Designed to meet the nutritional needs of each stage of school and to make a healthy diet the normal one.
We choose local, seasonal ingredients so that meals are fresh and good.
We offer gluten-free, lactose-free and vegan options, with no ultra-processed food and no added sugars, so that every student eats well.
Students take part in activities that show them why eating well matters.
Attention and relaxation techniques that help students concentrate and feel less stressed.
Physical activity is part of growing up and part of emotional balance.
Our eco campus, free of pollution, is good for students’ health and well-being.
A well-fed body and a settled mind are what let each student reach as far as they can.
Our food program offers balanced menus with fresh local ingredients, matched to each stage of growing up. Alongside it come workshops, work in the school garden and learning about eating habits that feed both body and mind, and that show in how students work.
Set in the Sierra de Guadarrama, we have green spaces, outdoor classrooms and teaching gardens that connect students with nature. We practice recycling and composting in a setting that lowers stress, stirs creativity and builds respect for the environment.
We run mindfulness programs by age group, where students learn breathing, meditation and how to steady themselves. These practices help them handle stress, concentrate better and meet difficulties calmly.
Menus are adapted individually for allergies and intolerances, so that every student is safe and eats well.
Mindfulness, sport, arts workshops and emotional support.
Through teaching activities that build healthy habits and environmental awareness.
We follow zero-waste policies, use ecological materials and put sustainable practices into everyday use.
Well-being is part of the ordinary day, not a subject on its own.
