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.
It was the pupils of the school who showed the inspectors around the school. This included a tour of their garden and detailed explanations of all the work the school is doing in co-operation with Tosca and her team.
The food on the inspection day was presented fantastically.
In 2005 the team was awarded a Silver award. Along with high overall scores from the school, this year Tosca and St Paul's Primary School were awarded a Gold award
