| Summary: | Inspiring stories about school projects that make a difference. When school cook Pat Kendall started working at special school New Siblands, she was delighted to learn the school wanted her to serve traditional, organic food. The school buys all of its produce locally, but Pat plans to turn the caretaker's former flower garden into a market garden, with a little help from Thornbury Horticultural Society. Not only will the garden supply the kitchen's school dinners, but pupils will also be able to learn about plant growth to complement their lessons. Pat often adapts the school menu to reinforce what is being taught in the classroom. For Victorian Day, New Siblands pupils enjoyed a bowl of gruel for their lunch! South Gloucestershire Council wants all school cooks to use more organic produce and less junk food, and Pat's enthusiasm illustrates how this can be achieved on a limited budget. |
