This week, boys in Years 6-8 were treated to a fascinating talk on healthy eating and wellbeing by Accent Catering’s engagement manager, Graham Ogden. Graham is a former F1 chef who told the boys exciting stories about how the top F1 drivers eat for performance. He explained how sleep, hydration, and eating a balanced diet, including complex carbohydrates, plant proteins, good fats, and plenty of vegetables and fruit, support improved performance – both in sports and exams.
The boys were gripped and noticed that those who had had a sugar breakfast were already yawning by 9:30 am! They were also interested to hear that the F1 Red Bull team is banned from drinking Red Bull!
The food Graham spoke about is available daily in the Dining Hall; it was wonderful to witness his talk influencing our older boys’ food choices.
