What’s cooking in Year 8?

Year 8 Technology students who are completing their Food Technology unit learned yet another new recipe last week - Pasta Alla Norma. The anticipation to cook this specific recipe was significantly higher than our previous dishes, as who doesn’t love a good pasta dish?

Students utilised the skills learnt from previous practical lessons, but were significantly more difficult to manage this time due to the nature of the recipe.

Students quickly learned the importance of working closely with their pair in order to delegate different parts of the recipe to each other, whilst also ensuring that there was enough time for cleaning the pile of dirty dishes that they had in their sinks!

We applaud our Year 8 students for taking on a recipe with an increased difficulty level as well as for their dedication to enhancing their skills in the kitchen. We are looking forward to completing another food practical in two weeks time!
