We are really pleased with the results of Class 1's Vegetables Frist trial.

Here's Helen Thorne's  (Phunky Foods Ambassador) response,

Quite astonishing! Whilst intake for 5 chidlren was (100%),  every other child increased their vegetable intake at week 5 compared to week1. I really didn’t expect such a positive result across the board.  My experience at the other school was that veg intake did not change.  So, it clearly made a difference at The Howard!

Thank you to Ms Carter and Helen Tjorne for leading on this research project.
