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.
The Headteacher here could not speak highly enough of the work that Lamisi and her team have been carrying out at Ben Jonson.
This wonderful new facility was the recent launch venue of our Marine Stewardship Council fish products.
The school scored maximum marks on the criteria and obtained the highest overall mark this year. So there was no doubt that Ben Jonson Primary School deserved to win a Gold award.
