Posted on by Leigh Academy Horsmonden
An indoor "School Food Showdown" event with two cooking stations—labeled "Green Peas" and "Red Chilli"—is being presented by a chef and two people in banana costumes to an audience of schoolchildren.

The children enjoyed a visit from ‘The Original School Food Showdown’ where two teams were challenged to create a healthy dish from scratch in only 15mins!

Both teams were amazing and successfully created two tasty, balanced meals, but the dish that was voted the favourite was created by ‘The Red Chilli Team!’

It was such a fun afternoon and a great way to learn about healthy eating!

Thank you to FoHPS (PTA) for funding such a fun and educational experience for the children!
