Food and Textile Technology Plastic Reduction – Guidelines for next session

The Food and Textile Technology Department (formally known as Home Economics) are aiming to cut down the use of plastic and foil containers within the kitchen as part of a drive to become more eco-friendly. To help combat this, the pupils are asked to bring in a plastic Tupperware container to carry their food dishes home. The most suitable container would be one with tight locks around the sides of the lid to ensure there are no spillages (picture below). We also ask that the pupils name and class is labelled clearly on the container.

If the pupil comes to class with no container then they may not be able to prepare food within the lesson.

If you are not able to supply a suitable container then let us know and we can source one for your child to keep.

We thank you for your support in this, and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
