Today, our 1st year students put their nutrition knowledge into practice by creating healthy, performance focused meals inspired by countries competing in the FIFA World Cup 🌍⚽️

Designed to fuel athletes before competition or support recovery afterwards, the dishes showcased both creativity and an understanding of the importance of nutrition in sport.🏆

As part of the challenge, students were also responsible for planning their meals, shopping for ingredients, and managing a budget. This helped develop valuable life skills. ✅

A huge thank you to our college catering department for providing access to their facilities and delivering an excellent kitchen safety briefing to our students! 👏🍽️ Graduates Restaurant, Lakes College
