So I started my course last week and my book was 3 days late, My lecturer told me I needed to get a module done every two weeks so im pushing to get this all done, I cant help but think i have forgotten something

When preparing food in a childcare environment a staff member must wash and sanitise hands before putting on gloves. Gloves are to be used when handling any food item

Different coloured boards are to be used to avoid cross contamination. Boards are not to be used for food items not listed in their colour

The area in which the preparation is too take place needs to be washed and disinfected,

so I also added that underneath

Yes, you're on the right track with your response.

I was checking out at a Safe Food Handling Policy and within the policy it also included the following:

Occupational Health and Safety Act 2000 and Regulations 2001 (NSW); Food Act 1989 (NSW).
Caring for Children: Food, Nutrition and Fun Activities, Bunney & Williams, 3rd edition, 1996;
FSANZ Food Standards Code - Chapter 3 - Food Safety Standards; Food Safety Fact
Sheets, FSANZ at: http://www.foodstandards.gov.au ;
Safe Food Australia, ANZFA, 2001;
Microwave Food Safety, Queensland Health, 2002 at: http://www.health.qld.gov.au/brochure/s ... rowave.htm ;
Dietary Guidelines for Children and Adolescents in Australia Incorporating the Infant Feeding Guidelines for Health Workers, NHMRC, 2003;
Australian Breastfeeding Association, at: http://www.breastfeding.asn.au .

Maybe you can include these points in your response as well or check them out.

Hope this helps,
