FOOD SAFETY FOR SCHOOL CANTEEN

Food safety is especially important in schools since children can be more susceptible to food borne
illnesses. The Australia Better Health Initiative focuses on creating a safer and healthier environment for
school children. Though the large part of this initiative is for healthier eating, it does also deal with food
safety as well. It is definitely true that kids need to learn how to eat healthy at a young age for a better
adulthood, but they also need to be able to eat foods in canteens without illness.
The Truth about Food Borne Illness
There are millions of cases of food borne illnesses in Australia each year. They result in more than one
hundred deaths and hundreds of thousands of doctors appointments. Anyone can become ill from
illnesses associated with bacteria or viruses in foods. Some groups are much more susceptible: the
elderly, those with immune compromising diseases, and children. Kids can be especially in danger of
food borne illness, so school canteens must take extra precautions.
The Importance of Good Hygiene
Working in a school canteen means you need to keep food safety in mind at all times. To begin with, your hygiene
plays a big role in how you keep foods safe for children to eat. Always, wash your hands before you touch food,
before and after you prepare meals, and after you have served the children. Additionally, always wash your hands
thoroughly after using the toilet and before going back into the kitchen. You cant just run your hands under the tap
either.
To properly wash your hands, make sure the water is warm. Then, soap up your hands thoroughly, being sure to get
between the fingers and under the nails. Then rinse thoroughly and dry with paper towels, not a towel. Fabric will
harbour bacteria and can transfer it to you thus transferring it back to the food.
A school canteen must be a clean and safe environment. Children are quite susceptible to food borne illness and
you must take the proper steps to always ensure all foods are safe for consumption. That means practicing safe
personal hygiene for all staff members, knowing how to properly store foods, how to keep foods at the proper
temperatures, and how to maintain acleanliness. School canteens in most areas of Australia are required by law to
have a Food Safety Supervisor on staff, so you need to make sure you either hire one or have one of your staff
members trained on a nationally recognised course.

Statements T F
1. Children are not vulnerable to food borne illnesses
2. Kids need to learn the importance of eat-healthy at a young age
3. Anyone can become ill from illnesses associated with bacteria or
viruses in foods.
4. Using towel to rinse and dry our hands is more effective
than using paper towel
5. Knowing how to properly store foods is not as important as
practicing personal hygiene to maintain a cleanliness
