Year 11 Food Studies - ‘Cooking for Others’

Throughout 2024, the Year 11 Food Studies class has this year supported the Exodus Community Heidelberg West by cooking for the Community Drop-in Lunch once per term.

Remarkably, within a single 60-minute period, students prepare a two-course meal for approximately 60 guests, which is enjoyed later the same day at the Exodus Community facility.

In doing this, students, are demonstrating many Ignatian values, most notably Men and women for and with others. This act of service shows the generosity of spirit of the Year 11s, and I would like to thank Silvana Ammendola for the ‘behind the scenes' work that she has put in all year to make these lunches possible. Well done, Year 11 Food Studies students.
