One Semester
Subject Overview
The Year 9 Cooking with Passion students will undertake a multicultural journey, exploring what it means to celebrate food and cook with passion around the world.
Students will critically analyse and implement cooking methods and food preparation processes while also being exposed to a wide variety of ingredients. Through this, students will develop appreciation for the taste and texture of foods and learn to prepare some exciting, culturally diverse meals.
Students will also be taught the importance of working in a sustainable way, gaining deeper knowledge of food commodities and seasonality of ingredients both locally and globally. Students will learn the different levels of food processing and will be required to refrain from using highly processed foods.
They make judgements of a range of technological issues about food production and associated health implications.
Students undertake study in Year 9 Cooking with Passion through the following topics:
- Practical Skills Development
- Cultural Understanding and Exploration of Foods
- Sustainable Food Awareness
