Year 11 Food and Hospitality and Community Studies students have been busy this term! We had an amazing opportunity to put our skills into practice, catering for the official lunch at the Crystal Brook Show. Community Studies students developed a menu that considered food allergies, variety and vegetarian options. They created the official menu to be displayed at the event. Both Food/Hospitality and Community Studies students were involved in preparing the food. This included Chicken/Corn soup, Broccoli soup, sausage rolls, pinwheels, quiches and fresh sandwiches. For dessert, we made red velvet cupcakes, lemon slice, orange friands and choc/coconut balls. 

After this, the Year 11 Food students have focused on contemporary cafe trends. Several students participated in an English excursion to review a local cafe last term and have used this experience to help them reflect on what they look for in a cafe dish. Students then created their own "signature cafe-style dish."  

  • Antwan - Lemon Cheesecake
  • Jonah - Chili Labneh Eggs
  • Latrell - Kung Pao Chicken
  • Sam - Cofee Cake
  • Danyl - Choc Mint Iced Coffee 

We are looking forward to a couple more catering opportunities in Term 4 for students to demonstrate their skills!
