Members of the Friday Food Club have been busy this year, enjoying the challenge of creating a lunchtime snack for their colleagues.

The Friday Food Club began several years ago as a way for staff to have a bit of fun together at the end of the week. With a different theme each time, members either cook or source food for others to taste, score and discuss, leading to plenty of friendly competition and laughter along the way.

The Autumn challenge saw staff explore traditional foods from UK counties, with an impressive 19 counties represented. Mr Tucker came out on top with his Warwickshire Stew, scoring an incredible 4.62 out of 5. Meanwhile, Mr Ryder reluctantly accepted the wooden spoon for his Scotch Pies!

The latest challenge is now underway, with members drawing a European country and a mystery ingredient to incorporate into their dish. With ingredients ranging from beetroot and lentils to capers and kimchi, the competition promises to be as inventive as ever.

Can Mr Tucker make it three victories in a row before moving on to a new school? We look forward to finding out!
