Cooking and Design

The Year 9 and 10 elective cooking class, worked with the Commerce and Business elective to make and sell their homemade treats. They used local produce like, lemon, basil, and cocoa to produce Jams, chocolate, lemon curd and lemon syrup.

During Term 3, the cooking class went to visit Gaston Chocolat and Active and learnt about how cocoa is farmed in Vanuatu. Students learnt how cococa seeds are harvested and the process to make chocolate. The best part of the trip was taste testing the products.

This year’s objective was to use and reuse materials and ingredients that we can easily get with minimal costs. By reusing materials like glass jars and bottles we are also helping save the planet.

In Design, we used recycled material to design and make a washable face mask to help with our covid restrictions. Students in Years 9 and 10 carefully handstitched different types of masks.
