Culinary Adventures in Indonesia
Year 9/10 students in Miss Parker’s passion project explored Indonesian cuisine, preparing satay chicken, handmade spring rolls and banana fritters. When a few spring rolls opened during frying, the group adapted by making cold rolls, showing problem-solving and resilience.
Miss Parker prepared banana fritters with ice-cream, which provided a sweet conclusion to the meal. Students from Miss Nixon’s Garden group were invited to join the feast, turning the session into a collaborative celebration of learning.
The activity gave students practical cooking skills while highlighting teamwork and cultural appreciation. It was also a chance to connect across groups and celebrate the value of food in bringing people together. The end result was a delicious success.
Congratulations to Telika, Anabel, Shannon and Miss Parker for their efforts!
Mini Golf Excursion
Prue’s Passion Project group visited Kadina Mini Golf to apply classroom learning in a practical setting. Students explored angles, control, and precision while developing patience and focus. (photos #5, 6) The excursion provided a fun but purposeful opportunity to combine physical activity with problem-solving. It also encouraged teamwork, as students supported and encouraged each other throughout the day. Experiences like these strengthen the connection between academic learning and real-world applications while also giving students the chance to share a positive group experience beyond the classroom.
