In Grade 9/10 Catering, we are grateful to be able to utilise the Eagle’s Nest Café to practice our coffee-making skills. There is absolutely no reason to go hungry at Prospect High School with students providing Terrific Toasties on a Tuesday and Winter Warmers on a Wednesday, where teachers take advantage of being served in a warm café space and various morning and afternoon teas delivered to staff rooms.

In addition to this, our two classes have been providing an array of different foods for various school functions. These opportunities are a great way for students to be able to utilise their known and new kitchen and organisation skills. Recently, we have done private functions for community members in addition to school-based events.

This real-world experience is invaluable for training, and if you would like to discuss how we can cater for you from our council registered kitchenm please email adrienne.mcmahon@education.tas.gov.au or call 6344 4744.
