Based at Tiverton in Devon is the famous four hundred year old school named Blundell’s after one of the wealthiest merchants of Elizabethan England, Peter Blundell who died in 1601.
Now In 2008 this independent school caters for over thirteen hundred day and boarding pupils producing in excess of two thousand meals a day. Catering Manager Geoff Edwards is responsible for the catering team at the two kitchens on campus and is conscious of the need to serve healthy quality food to feed both the mind and body of the growing learners.
Such is the turnover of food at Blundell’s that it receives daily deliveries of quality fresh, chilled and frozen foods that have to be managed correctly at both of the newly fitted kitchens. Clearly temperature management of stock within refrigeration plant is a key issue for Geoff with staff checking temperatures twice daily. |
