The School Nutrition Award for Tower Hamlets is now entering its fourth year. It was developed by Children's Services Contract Services (the in-house school meal providers of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets Council) and the Community Dietitian (part of Bart’s and the London NHS Trust Nutrition and Dietetics Department). The award has been gaining increasing recognition within the primary and secondary schools in Tower Hamlets since it was started as well as a feature in a national association journal.
The award recognises the ‘whole school approach’ to food and nutrition issues within the local schools, providing recognition to the individual school catering service and nutrition-related activities e.g. breakfast clubs, tuck shops, water provision, organised within the school.
Arnhem Wharf was the first SNA inspection of 2007.
The school is delighted with the work that Leroy and his team have been providing over the years and they themselves have been working very hard to encourage children to have a healthy lifestyle. This has included parent allotments within the school gounds and because of the hard work both kitchen and school have put in they deservedly win the Silver award.
