O


n Saturday the


28th' February young Joel Costin,a year 8 pu- pil from hall mead school Upminster, represented Haver- ing in the district final of the rotary young chef compe- tition for 2009.


T


he final was held at


Chelmsford college in the highly es- teemed catering department. he was accompanied on this venture by his form tutor and home economics teacher Ms. Sandra Heinze, his mother Mrs. Kelly Costin and Rotarian George Larkey (who retired as a teacher from the school in 2002 )


a


s one of the youngest com-


petitors, Joel was up against 9 other young chefs from our district.


Young chef 2009 T


he atmosphere in the waiting room was very relaxed and


friendly although there was a de- gree of tension in the air and when the young Chefs produced their food it was a joy to behold. The standard of all the Chefs was very high indeed. He was not successful on this occasion but he thoroughly enjoyed the ex- perience which I feel will stand him in good stead for next year when he has another go. each of the chefs received a present from the district governor.


T


he winner and runner up in


this district final went on to the re- gional final and we wish them good luck as they try for a place in the national


final which will be held at Westminster hall .London on the 19th. April.
