Roden students take the top honours at the Chopped 55 cooking program Championship Finale.

The cooking program paired students from local schools and police officers from 55 Division. A few Grade 6 students from Roden attended an after school program where they learned to work together to create great food. The Championship Finale took place last week at the George Brown College Chef School and the Roden Grade 6 students walked away with the 1st prize. One of our students, Rylan, also received a prize for “Unforgettable Personality in the Kitchen”! Great job guys.
