AldringtonFood
Helping our children understand where food comes from is an important part of helping them develop responsible eating habits. Growing projects, as well as recycling fruit and vegetable waste back into the soil as compost, help support this as do our food technology projects in DT.
As part of our involvement in the 'Food Growing in Schools' project, we are incorporating the use of the Garden Classroom into the curriculum for all classes across the school to enrich their learning. The Garden Classroom has its own dedicated section in the Aldrington Newsletter so you can stay updated on all our green-fingered projects. You can also follow its transformation and progress on our school website.
Our school meals providers Caterlink also promote sustainable and responsible eating habits by providing one meat-free day every week and meat-free options every day. Other initiatives help the children understand the value of a healthy balanced diet such as Eat them to Defeat them encouraging children to eat a wider range of vegetables.
