Churchill Students Join Prestigious Junior Chef Academy with Compass Catering and City of Bristol College!

We’re incredibly proud to announce that five of our students have been selected to join the Junior Chef Academy, run in partnership with Compass Catering and top professional chefs at City of Bristol college!

This 10-week culinary programme is a unique opportunity, designed to give aspiring young chefs hands-on experience in a professional kitchen. Students will learn advanced cooking techniques, kitchen management skills and menu planning, all under the guidance of Matt Lord and his top chefs from Compass Catering.

Out of the 15 places available across all participating schools in the South West, we’re thrilled that five of our students will be in the group — a testament to the passion, talent and dedication of our students.

The course will culminate in a grand banquet at MOD Abbeywood, where students will showcase their new skills by preparing and serving a full meal to college staff and special guests. It's an incredible opportunity to shine — and we can’t wait to see what our young chefs create!

Congratulations to our students:

Alice, Emma, Theo, Ted and Xander – we’ll be cheering you on every step of the way!
