EDUCATIONAL FOOD TOUR-STYLE EVENTS FOR SCHOOLS & COLLEGES
We have proudly collaborated with a number of local schools and colleges to organise and host an engaging educational food tour style event specifically designed for students. This dynamic experience is suitable for Year 9 upwards who are studying subjects related to nutrition, food, or even business management.
Our carefully curated educational food tours offer a fascinating insight into the intricacies of running a hospitality business. Participants will have the unique opportunity to explore a vibrant food hall, hear directly from talented street food vendors, and sample a delightful variety of cuisines, including Latin American, Sri Lankan, Korean, and Italian.
Additionally, students will enjoy an informative talk and tasting session from Bullion Chocolate focused on the art of making craft chocolate, enhancing their learning experience even further.
“My Y10 students had a fantastic time at Sheffield Plate and Leah’s Yard courtesy of the wonderful Sophie and Peter at Sheffield Food Tours. Sophie was fantastic right from the start, tailoring the tour to suit the needs of our curriculum. The students loved having time to explore Sheffield Plate independently and, of course, to sample the delicious food on offer. They were all stuffed! A great experience that I would highly recommend to any school. Thanks Sheffield Food Tours! We’ll be back next year!”
