Hospitality

Some of our Year 11 and 12 hospitality learners have been completing an assessment on grilling.

Assessments like these allow to students to develop their confidence in the kitchen and pride in their work by producing professional level end products in a simulated commercial environment.

The standard requires that both vegetables and a protein source are grilled, and that the product is presented and garnished for two customers complete with an accompaniment.

For this they made lunch boxes which were offered to staff at cost. The lunchbox included lemon and oregano chicken which was served on top of a mediterranean potato salad. To accompany this they also made hummus and grilled some pita bread.

Feedback from staff on the lunchboxes was fantastic!
