Top Chef adopts Dame Alice Harpur School
24 June 2008
Grant Hawthorne, head chef at The Plough, Wavendon, has recently
adopted Dame Alice Harpur School as part of the 'Chefs Adopt a School'
programme being run by the Academy of Culinary Arts. Chefs who are
involved give their time voluntarily because they want to pass on the
passion that first brought them to the profession they love. The main
aims of 'Chefs Adopt a School' are to advance the education of young
people in food, nutrition, hygiene, health and related subjects and to
develop young people's knowledge, understanding and appreciation of
food. The Year 9 girls spent a morning with Grant, creating dishes from
recipes currently used in his restaurant.
