Food

All the staff and students in the school and centre receive a healthy meal every day. This helps ensure that they are not malnourished and can effectively grow, serve, study and learn. Our cooking staff work hard every day to feed abut 420 people per day. This is quite an accomplishment! We also have many parent volunteers who help in the kitchen in the preparation, separation, delivery and clean up stages of this program. Just recently we have begun to use the services of Outside the Bowl (outsidethebowl.org) and have been purchasing prepared food from them. Doing this makes the program more cost effective and sustainable. They cook with a lot less oil, using large pressure cookers. Most importantly the food prepared is more nutritious as they add the necessary vitamins and supplements.
