Subject Description

Bon Appetite

Ever wanted to know the secret to making authentic Italian pizzas, or indulge in the rich flavours of Greek desserts? Students discover a world of flavour as they cook signature meals from a range of different cultures.

This subject celebrates the diversity and the richness of our college community. Students will make meaningful connections between food and culture as they learn about culinary traditions and practice a variety of cooking methods and techniques.
