The School Nutrition Award for Tower Hamlets is now entering its 6th 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.
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, grow your own garden, water provision, organised within the school.
The Conclusion
The school has been working hard with parents to improve the content of packed lunches. Mary and her team have also been working hard to continually provide consistently high school meals.
The school has recently introduced a growing area and are currently working towards Healthy school Status.
Two years ago the school achieved a Bronze Award and this year the shcool has improved and has now won a Silver Award.
