Food Technology

Yearly Reflection

Throughout 2016, we have had two 5/6 elective classes, five Grade 6 classes, six Year 7 classes, two Year 8 Junior Master Chef classes, two Year 8 Food Discovery classes, two Year 9 Senior Master Chef classes and two Year 9 Food Safari classes. All of these students were able to produce and showcase their creativeness through their food. Not only have they produced amazing food but they have learnt invaluable life lessons during their theory classes.

Here are some quotes from two of our own students.

We have made a lot of nice things in Grade 6 Food Technology. Some of the foods we have made include stir fry, pasta, cookies, quiche, and fried rice. We have also learnt about healthy eating and how it is important to eat healthy for our future. We know now some good snacks and lunches to have at school. I can’t wait for Food Technology in Year 7!

Grade 6

Food Technology is an amazing subject and it’s really fun. I have gained confidence and now believe in my ability to do well in the kitchen. We have made many savoury dishes such as chicken kebab, spaghetti bolognaise, mushroom and spinach risotto and butter chicken. Some sweet foods we have made include caramel slice, chocolate brownies and rock cakes.

Year 7

At the beginning of Term 3, the Year 8 and 9 students worked extremely hard on producing food for the Middle Years Exbo. Each pair of students were able to produce a food that they thought best represented Food Technology for the upcoming year levels. The food was a great hit with all the food being eaten within the first hour! All students worked extremely hard and were all very proud to share their experiences with other parents and students.

Bring on 2017!
