Food for Life

The Food For Life Partnership brings schools and their communities together around the core ethos of healthy, tasty and sustainable food. The program is about promoting the learning of where food comes from and how it is grown, cooked and experienced. Last year, we became the first school in Nottingham city to achieve the Bronze Food for Life award. This year, our Eco Team will be working on the silver award..
