The herbs grown at the Skylight Centre are thriving, and our Herb Lab project is well underway. On Wednesday evening, students from the Super Curriculum programme harvested fresh parsley and brought it back to Food HQ.
The students carefully prepared the parsley by finely chopping and dehydrating it before storing it in jars, ready for use in the Tiny Tastebuds Cooking Academy next academic year. This fantastic farm-to-fork experience is helping students develop valuable food preparation and sustainability skills.
Meanwhile, the courgettes are almost ready for harvest. Once picked, they will be frozen and used to make delicious ratatouille, ensuring none of our home-grown produce goes to waste.
We are incredibly proud of our students' hard work and look forward to seeing the harvest continue throughout the season!

Well done to Fletcher, who recently delivered an outstanding English Speaking and Listening presentation, combining his excellent public speaking skills with his passion for food and cookery.
Fletch spoke confidently about the world of fine dining and his love of food, while also exploring the sensory properties that influence how we cook and experience different dishes. To bring his presentation to life, he treated his classmates to a taste-testing session.
Building on the success of our Food students' participation in the Fish Heroes scheme, Fletcher prepared a culinary delight of crackers topped with crème fraîche, smoked salmon, fresh chives and caviar. His classmates were eager to sample the dish and experience the flavours for themselves.
This was a fantastic example of cross-curricular learning, showcasing the strong links between English and Food Technology. Well done, Fletcher, on a creative, engaging and memorable presentation!

This reward has been given every half term throughout Year 10 as a way of thanking our prefects for their dedication, commitment and hard work. Whether helping with Year 7 lunches or assisting with various school events, our prefects have played a vital role in school life throughout this academic year.
We would like to say a huge thank you to all our prefects for their enthusiasm, reliability and outstanding contribution to our school community. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
