The conference saw over 100 school kitchen staff travel from 35 schools across the country to hear from renowned chefs and food campaigners who support the charity’s mission to improve child health through school food.

Speakers included TV chef and school food campaigner Jamie Oliver, Dame Prue Leith - restaurateur, television presenter, cookery writer and novelist, the charity’s co-founder and author of the School Food Plan, Henry Dimbleby, and Chief Innovation Officer, Nicole Pisani, cookbook writer and former Head Chef at Ottolenghi’s NOPI restaurant. The event also previewed Chefs in Schools' national membership, a one-stop-shop for excellence in school food, sharing knowledge and resources to ensure chefs and their teams feel part of a bigger support network. We are delighted to announce that we are one of the first schools to join Chefs in Schools’ Membership. Being a part of this membership will help us continue to transform our school food, deliver excellence and create a legacy of food that makes every visit to the dining hall a food education that’s enjoyable for all. We look forward to the year ahead with the support from Chefs in Schools and the exciting opportunities for our kitchen team.

Posted on: 22/05/2024Islington Schools Football League WinnersThe year 8 and 9 football team faced their biggest challenge this week. "It was the best and hardest match we played as a team, we pushed so hard in every match and we played so well by communicating well and making sure everyone knew where they were supposed to be. I think it is important as a team you have to work together and not to put all of the effort onto one player. We won the tournament because we understood that it was such an amazing and exciting feeling after winning our last match. We knew we had to draw or win and we were determined to win.” - Poppy (Team Captain)-Year 9
