X Block Nutrition: reminder for students to bring ingredients for sessions next week

This term, E25 are learning about nutrition in one of their three X Block sessions each week.  We have looked at what constitutes a balanced diet, discussed the components of the Eatwell Guide and the nutrients present in different foods.

This week, students have been working in pairs or groups of three to plan how they will cook a plate of food which meets requirements of their choosing; for example, a vegetarian starter, a healthy dessert or a free-from main course.  

Each group have a meal planner document which will be signed off by me on Google Docs before they can cook.  These MUST be completed before the session, otherwise they will not be able to cook.

The meals will be cooked in their normal X Block session with me on either Monday or Thursday morning.  

Your child will have been allocated responsibility within their group to provide certain ingredients of their choosing.  Please could you support them in ensuring that these are purchased in good time so they can bring them into school on either Monday or Thursday for their X Block session (they know which groups they are in and which day they are cooking on).

If you would like to contact me to discuss arrangements for your son or daughter, please contact me at school by phone or by email on [email protected]

Thanks in advance for your support.
