"students eat at different times. grades 7, 8 and 9 line up in the canteen every 15 minutes to eat," said wang liang, party secretary and principal of zaoyang no.5 middle school. "there are more than 1,200 students in three grades in the school, and they eat three meals a day at school. the school is very cautious about food safety and the quality of students' meals."
at 11:30, the first group of seventh graders entered the cafeteria, and long lines quickly formed at each food window. students scanned their faces, served rice, and ordered more dishes at the window. in a few seconds, a large bowl of food was served to the students. students ate in different areas and took their seats according to their numbers, and began to enjoy the first campus meal of the fall semester.
braised lion head with cowpea, braised pork ribs with potato, stir-fried winter melon, scrambled eggs with cabbage... the delicious meals prepared on the same day in the school cafeteria were unanimously recognized by the students.
"the school menu is updated every week and posted in a conspicuous place in the cafeteria. the school does not handle student meal expenses. each meal fee is directly paid into the special account of the huancheng street central school cafeteria. parents can see every consumption expenditure of their students at school through alipay." wang liang introduced.
"as a member of the school's parent committee, i have been invited to the school cafeteria many times. i feel that the school's meals are a reasonable combination of meat and vegetables, and the nutrition is enough for growing children." fang fang, who lives near the school and is the vice president of the zaoyang no. 5 middle school parent committee, has a child who has just entered the ninth grade. she said: "every time the child comes home, he says that he is full and eats well at school!"
the first meal after school is the beginning of the new semester's campus food safety work and an important test for the school canteen management. at zaoyang no. 1 middle school, near noon, the canteen chefs cook the dishes on time, and after the dishes are out of the pot, the staff delivers the meals to the food delivery window.
"we first soak the vegetables in salt water, then rinse them and cut them. after cutting, we wash them again and set them aside. raw and cooked food are processed separately." nie fei, the head chef of the canteen of zaoyang no. 1 middle school, introduced that the canteen strictly implements the "daily control, weekly inspection, and monthly scheduling" work system. after the fresh ingredients are delivered to the school, they carefully carry out the classification, rinsing, disinfection and other processes to ensure that students eat safely and healthily.
in the cafeteria of xinglong town no. 2 primary school, at 11:30 am, dishes such as fried cowpea with meat and potato ribs were all prepared. students of all grades lined up neatly under the guidance of their teachers and walked into the cafeteria. a pot of hot food filled the window with steam and fragrance, and the students scanned their faces to get their meals in an orderly manner.
"my favorite dish is scrambled eggs with tomatoes! there are meat and vegetables in the school cafeteria. it's more delicious to eat with classmates. it feels better than the food at home." sun xueru, a sixth-grade student, talked about her feelings about eating at school while eating.
"as a township school, our school strictly controls the procurement, storage, processing and production of food ingredients, as well as the disinfection of tableware. we also invite parent volunteers to supervise and participate in the management of school logistics services, and ensure food safety on campus through home-school cooperation." qu ling, the principal of xinglong town no. 2 primary school, said that the school also frequently organizes food broadcast activities to let every parent know about their children's dining consumption at school.
it is understood that there are 156 primary and secondary schools of various types in zaoyang city, and 109 schools have student canteens. campus safety concerns thousands of families and has always been the top priority of zaoyang's education system. campus food safety is particularly important and the responsibility is heavy.
in order to ensure that students can eat safely and parents can feel at ease, and to safeguard the bottom line of food safety on campus, the zaoyang municipal education bureau insists on fully protecting campus food safety from the aspects of fulfilling main responsibilities, strengthening safety management, improving service quality, strengthening supervision and inspection, and building a clean campus.
at the same time, the zaoyang municipal commission for discipline inspection and supervision earnestly urged and cooperated with the education department to carry out all-round and full-cycle supervision and inspection of the city's schools in the distribution of bulk materials, warehousing, joint financial inspections of canteens, and standardized management of student meal funds, to ensure that zaoyang city's campus canteens are run as safe canteens with warm service, reliable nutrition, warm prices, and honest and standardized management.
