What has been happening!

The Langham Hotel

VET Kitchen Operations students enjoyed a fabulous excursion to The Langham Hotel at the end of Term 2.  Students toured the hotel, viewed the guest rooms, club rooms and ballroom, as well as visiting the kitchens and stores areas.  They enjoyed the tour and asked plenty of questions, ranging from queries about famous guests, to questions about possible careers at The Langham. 

The highlight of the day was, without doubt, the buffet lunch in the Melba Restaurant. Students were encouraged to sample foods they had never tasted before - some were brave, other less so! Of course, the chocolate fountain was a hit for all! 

This excursion was made possible by the Castlemaine Technical College Past Student Association, who funded the day as a ‘Thank you’ to the students who prepared and served Sunday Lunch to members of the CTCPSA at the beginning of the year.  We are most grateful to the CTCPSA for their continued support and for making this excursion possible.
