Coin Street Nursery works with Chefs in Schools

Child eats food

“Coin Street Nursery’s healthy menu gave our daughter the confidence to try different food and new flavours.” – Joana, Coin Street Nursery parent 

Coin Street Nursery has been working with Chefs in Schools since December 2020, transforming the food we serve and helping children to learn and get excited about what they’re eating.

Chefs in Schools is a charity that works with schools to promote healthy diets. They believe every child deserves the right to access, enjoy and learn about good, nutritious food.

With a rise in childhood obesity and diet-related illnesses in the UK, particularly in areas of the country with less money, both Coin Street and Chefs in Schools are committed to changing the way we think about food in schools.

At Coin Street food matters to us. Like many nurseries we work on a tight budget and delivering high quality food can be a challenge. We have quickly seen the positive results of our partnership with Chefs in Schools, with happy children and happy budgets

Jane Christofi, Head of Early Years at Coin Street

With the help of Chefs in Schools, Coin Street Nursery employed Simon Brown, a professional chef who has been trained to create menus for children, give guidance on nutrition and deal with fussy eaters.
