Year 10 Food & Nutrition

This course offers four units of work that will provide students with the knowledge and skills so they can make informed judgements about the food they eat as growing adolescents. It also allows students to design and make food items from scratch in safe and hygienic conditions. Students will also investigate how other cultures have influenced the foods eaten in New Zealand today.  

This course will offer learning experiences in the following:

• Basic food hygiene-safety
• Nutritional needs for health - wellbeing
• Research, design, develop and make a hamburger
• New Zealand food culture and look at other cultures
