Mystery Box Challenge: Year 9 Foods
Our Year 9 Foods students were put to the test this week with a Mystery Box Challenge.Â
The girls were given a box of ingredients from the Australian, Asian or Mediterranean cuisines and were given the challenge to create a dish from scratch without a provided recipe.Â
The challenge had four main rules:
- The students were limited to only the ingredients that were found in their mystery box plus a few general pantry ingredients
- To minimise food waste, all of the ingredients from the mystery box had to be usedÂ
- The students had 50 minutes to prepare and plate up their dish
- The dish must look as good as it tastes, with students needing to consider how they present their final dish with plating and garnishing choices
Some of the dishes the girls created under the time constraints included pizza, noodles, scones, pasta and rice.Â
Fantastic work girls, your dishes smelled and looked amazing!Â
The Value of Student Voice – Jennifer Oaten
“At Santa Maria College, we are not only given the opportunity, but we are encouraged by our teachers and each other to voice our opinions, concerns and ideas—to continue moving forward as a school and as a community. Student voice is integral for growth, and allows for us, as students to have an active role in shaping our education.”
