We were delighted to welcome Lisa O’Rourke (Product Development Manager from Albert Bartlett) who delivered a workshop for S3 Health and Food Technology pupils during Developing the Young Workforce Week. Lisa inspired the pupils to consider a career in the food industry, especially Food Product Development. Pupils learned about food trends and the development process. They also got to make and evaluate potato wedges with 3 different varieties of potatoes.
