Future Chef 2011

Four of our S3/4 Hospitality students are taking part in FutureChef this year. They have chosen recipes and are working after school to practice and tweak them ready for the school heat which took place in October.

At this stage in the competition they have to produce a main course for two people on a budget of £4 and they have to prepare and serve it in an hour.

The recipes they are working on are as follows: Mustardy Pork and Apples, Crispy Italian Chicken with Polenta, Vegetable and Butter Bean Hotpot and Roast Rack of Lamb with Potato and Cauliflower Dauphinoise. The winner of the School heat will go forward to compete against other Edinburgh schools in the next round. We wish them all well!

GO4SET – ‘Go for Science, Engineering and Technology’

This year the GO4SET competition is based on designing a new school classroom. The students are expected to design a new classroom that takes in to account all the recycling, energy use and use of waste, as well as the architectural design of the space. The CDT department are working with 2C and hope to come up with some ideas that can be put in place within Castlebrae this year.
