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.
Sarah has settled in very well at Bangabhandu. Her team and her have been working closely with the school. The school were particularly pleased with the level of interaction with children. The school will be introducing parent tasting sessions very soon to allow the parenrts and carers to taste the delights that she prepares daily.
This along with the experiences of the inspection team has led to Sarah and her colleagues to receive a Gold award.
