On May 22^nd a Navy team of chefs visited the academy and gave an insight into navy diet.

As part of the Fit 4 Life programme Petty Officer Skally Smith taught teams of students from across the years how to rustle up the perfect chicken curry.

Altogether  90 students took part with 3 sessions taking place throughout the day.

Director of Design Cath Davis who organised the visit said: “What an amazing day! Students got stuck in straight away. Skally and his assistant Larry made over 90 portions of Chicken Curry with four different classes.

“They also delivered two assemblies to students about navy Life with many students expressing an interest. The day was fun filled, action packed and one the students were talking about all week.

“We even managed to get Mr Aston and Mr Feely cooking with the BTEC Public Service students.”
