Its strength lies in its practical approach to learning and therefore all students regardless of scholastic aptitude can be achievers. The Education Support group is doing the practical work component of the Upper School course, Creative Cookery and will show their skills when they invite their parents to a morning tea. Year 8 students parents are also invited to a morning tea to sample some of the cooking results which may otherwise be eaten before they get home, affording us an opportunity to meet with parents, and they with us, the staff. They have always met with a wonderful response, and parents, we hope you will be able to see your child in action in the kitchen. Instep students prepare a lunch for their parents.
Parental involvement is encouraged, particularly in the clothing classes during the term.
If you are interested please speak with Mrs Waddell, Head of Department, Home Economics.
