In 2024, the PHSG Earth Alliance Group has been actively raising awareness about our changing environment. One of the highlights of this year was our collaboration with Derriford Hospital on a unique art project that connects health and sustainability. This long but rewarding journey has led to the creation of a powerful piece of artwork, and we are proud of what we've achieved.
As we wrap up another term in the Year 10 Food Preparation and Nutrition course, it's exciting to reflect on the incredible progress our students have made. This term, our focus was on developing higher-level practical skills, and our students certainly rose to the challenge during their end-of-unit practical session. They had the opportunity to select and prepare dishes featuring meat, fish, poultry, or eggs—allowing them to showcase their creativity and culinary expertise.
