Kenilworth School Newsletter 26 November 2010

Read the FULL NEWSLETTER  We are in the process of reviewing our catering arrangements and as part of this review we have engaged a firm of catering consultants to undertake a needs analysis with regard to catering. In the next few weeks, the firm of consultants will carry out surveys and discussions with key stakeholders on their views of our catering. At present, we employ a catering company to provide our school meals and we work closely with them to ensure that they offer a wide range of meals to ensure that they comply with national nutritional standards. With our emphasis on sustainability, we are always looking at how we can increase the consumption of locally grown produce.

Kenilworth School Newsletter 19 November 2010

Here is the Kenilworth School Newletter for 19th Nov - quite packed this week with many dates, competitions awards and information.  Remember, paper copies are only sent to those parents who have not provided the school with an email address. That's saving 10,000 sheets of A4 paper a week.

We held our Sixth Form Open Evening this week and I would like to thank everybody who contributed to making it such a success. It was inspiring to hear our students talk so confidently and sincerely about their experiences of study at Castle. I am always impressed by our students’ level of independence, maturity and confidence. It was also good to see so many prospective students at the event including many from outside of Kenilworth. Talking to some of our sixth formers, they invariably comment on the breadth of opportunities that they have at Castle and the good relationships that exist between staff and students. They also appreciate that, although the sixth form is an integral part of Kenilworth School, the sixth form site is separated from the main school building, and this enables the students to develop quickly a sense of responsibility and independence.

Andreas Antona, the owner of Simpsons in Birmingham, is to open a second restaurant specialising in steaks.

The succinctly named Beef will be in Kenilworth, home of the original Simpsons before the Michelin-starred restaurant relocated to Edgbaston.

Beef is set to become a destination spot for dedicated carnivores, serving top quality meat from Scotland as well as delicious steaks from across the world. Diners will be able to select from a rotating menu of Highland cattle, United States prime beef, Australian Wagyu, Japanese Kobe and top breeds from Argentina.

The Orangery now have their own website at:  www.theorangeryflowershop.com as it will provide a welcome expansion for their business after growing out of this page. Their website was designed by TMDP (www.themikedownespage.com)

After spending time with Gabrielle Robbins (the owner) I came away with a renewed enthusiasm for not just flowers, but pollination and the role of the bee. Gabrielle is fascinated with flowers and that natural enthusiasm shines through, especially the love of species from England, which is very interesting as many blooms come from Holland - with some imported from as far away as Columbia and Ecuador. I am told The Flower Council of Holland is excellent for general information and there is a Flower Council UK website as well.

For those who do not know, an Orangery was a building found in fashionable residences in the 17th to 19th century where citrus trees were often wintered. The shop has been converted to incorporate a roof lantern to provide natural light for the flowers. The Orangery Flower Shop is at the rear of Talisman Square directly facing Waitrose. Home delivery is now offered along with floral arrangements for Weddings and Special Occasions. The Orangery now has a Google Owner Verified Business Listing.
