I just wanted to pass on my sincere thanks for the great job you all did for our catering yesterday at the Older, Wiser Forum. The food was delicious, so fresh and the presentation amazing! Guests from organisations based in Geelong and Melbourne and the general public attended and commented on the quality and presentation of the morning tea. I was proudly telling about your business and valuable service in our community. Feel welcome to throw in some business cards with the order next time so people can easily have your details for future orders. Well done and please pass on my thanks to your team.
Food-A-Roma’s supportive learning model reflects SkillsConnection’s commitment to design and implement innovative, and practical opportunities for our participants to enter or return to the workforce.
We work with a supportive and flexible learning model that enhances independent living skills by providing practical education in literacy and numeracy, and offering a real opportunity for people to improve their employability in either open or supported employment.
As participants are trained in all aspects of hospitality this gives them the opportunity to undertake formal class work for accredited hospitality training courses which are nationally recognised.
Food-A-Roma supports this training by providing opportunities for practical application of hospitality skills including:
Underpinning these practical skills, Food-A-Roma also fosters the development of life skills in areas such as:
Food-A-Roma participants are supported and nurtured by experienced staff with qualifications in both the hospitality and disability fields.
Since its inception in April 2006 as a small one day per week lunch order delivery service with only 15 customers, Food-A-Roma has expanded both the scope and range of its services and its customer base.
Initially the Food-A-Roma group partnered with a local restaurateur who provided mentoring and access to a commercial kitchen facility.
In 2011 Food-A-Roma entered into an agreement with Colac Football and Netball Club (The Colac Tigers) and moved its food preparation activities to the kitchens at the Central Reserve Football Ground.
Food-A-Roma is now located at 41-43 Donaldson Street and operates Mondays to Fridays. It prepares over a hundred meals a day, as well as catering for corporate functions and private parties.
As we grow so does our ability to provide meaningful mentoring opportunities for our participants. Whilst Food-A-Roma runs as a commercial business all the income generated from its activities are returned to the program, to further support participant inclusion, and serve our wonderful community.
