# Year 1 - Preparing Food Safely

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/news/photocards_ai_collage_(7).png)   1 October 2025

This week we have discussed all things kitchen safety! We discussed how to prepare food safely, how to use equipment safely and why we do this. The children had fun taking turns to cut a variety of food items including bananas, peppers and apples. ![](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/images/news/photocards_ai_collage_(7).png)
