Food Studies in Action! 

Year 10 Healthy Eating classes have been busy designing, producing and evaluating their CAT dishes. Students were challenged to create a dish suitable for the school canteen that meets the nutritional needs of adolescents. Some delicious and creative meals were produced — and, of course, enjoyed! 

Our Year 8 classes have also been busy completing their first CATs. Students explored the topic of fad diets and, after preparing a fad diet-inspired dish, evaluated how well it aligned with the Australian Dietary Guidelines (ADG) and the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating (AGHE). 

It has been fantastic to see students applying their knowledge of nutrition and healthy eating to practical food preparation tasks.
