Food Technology
Year 8
Technology Mandatory consists of a variety of units for students to learn through design and production activities as they develop solutions to identified needs and opportunities. In this unit students learn through the practical application of knowledge and understanding about Food Technologies. For their first Food Technology practical lesson, Year 8 made Chocolate Truffles, this recipe allowed students to learn basic food preparation skills, cleaning and washing procedures in the kitchen.
We look forward to seeing what other creations Year 8 make in the future.
Year 11
As we continue through our unit of study this term we have investigated a range of factors that affect our food selection and foods that are native to Australia. Kangaroo Stir Fry is a fusion of cultures which enables students to learn not only how to prepare and cook Kangaroo but how to incorporate it into dishes that are common in everyday cuisine.
Year 12
Year 12 Hospitality have been continuing their training using the coffee machine. Year 12 students have started a new unit looking at how to prepare and serve espresso beverages. We continue to focus on the pre operational procedures and close down procedures. Students also learnt how to make different types of coffee such as a ristretto, flat white, Piccolo Latte and Mocha.
