Seniors Numeracy and Hospitality

We use numeracy every day of our lives, and students have been improving their numeracy skills by applying them to real-life situations during the lessons. This term, students created a house blueprint and calculated the cost of different types of flooring, paint and air conditioners by applying their knowledge on geometry.

Additionally, their numeracy kills keep improving during food production. Throughout Semester 2, students enjoyed cooking casual dining foods from different cuisines worldwide, including Japanese, Mexican, and French. They have the opportunity to practise and demonstrate various cooking techniques to the rest of the staff and junior students. Moreover, Term 4 started with a visit to a local traditional Japanese restaurant called O’cha cha; students enjoyed the atmosphere and courageously tried new flavours and textures. It has been a fantastic year sharing laughs and sometimes frustrations, but we culminate this year with smiles at the end of the day.
