  British Food Fortnight's Tractor Ted Challenge for Pre and Primary Schools – Shake up the school smoothie!
Welcome to the ninth British Food Fortnight when schools are again being invited to teach children about the diverse and delicious range of food available, the pleasures and health benefits of eating quality, fresh, seasonal and regionally-distinct produce and where it comes from.
This year British Food Fortnight has teamed up with Tractor Ted, the character behind the real life action farming films and books, to challenge young children to shake up school milk during this year's national food promotion which runs from 18 September to 3 October 2010.
 Children's TV Presenter, Michaela Strachan, is leading the panel of judges for the competition.
Use the event to make sure that food stays on the curriculum in your school. It is the best way to guarantee the healthy well-being of your pupils!
This year's Challenge is to let your pupils' imagination run wild and add some smoothie sensation to your school milk. We challenge you to design the ultimate school smoothie! Think seasonal, think local, think healthy, think yummy! See our teaching resources below for ideas.
All entries will receive a FREE Tractor Ted goes milking DVD with teacher notes worth £12.99* – a real life film showing where good healthy milk comes from and what milk is used for; a fun and factual treat for Early Years and Foundation Stage children.
 Closing date for entries is Friday 15 October 2010.
