Catering teams serves up treats to celebrate school anniversary

A school catering team provided a feast of treats to help celebrate a recent special anniversary.

Ysgol Glan Clwyd celebrated its 70^th anniversary of providing education on the evening of Friday January 23 with a special entertainment event hosted by Lisa Gwilym including guests, Mark Drakeford, Ian Gwyn Hughes, Owain Roberts, Mair Edwards and Elen Gwyn Williams.

Performances on the night were also provided by Steffan Rhys Hughes, Celyn Cartwright, Mared Williams and Meinir Llwyd.

Fresh from providing Ysgol Glan Clwyd pupils with healthy meals on a daily basis, the school’s catering team turned their skills to providing a three-course menu for the festivities for attendees to enjoy.

The team worked hard to put together a menu consisting of:

• Snowdonia Cheese Tarlet with Caramelised Onion
• Supreme of Chicken served with Vale Vineyard White wine and Leek sauce, selection of Vegetables and Potatoes

Hayley Jones, Principal Manager Catering & Cleaning Services, said: “I’m really proud of our team at Catering Services for stepping up and providing a service that’s a little different to what they normally do catering wise. What they did for this special event was fantastic and a great example of how skilled our school catering teams are across Denbighshire.

Cllr Diane King, Lead Member for Education, added “Our school catering teams work hard all year around to support pupils and teaching staff. Hats off to our Catering Services team for organising and preparing such a great menu to support a very important landmark in the school’s history.”
