As part of our careers programme, pupils spent the day at University College Birmingham, immersing themselves in its dynamic learning environment and cutting-edge facilities.
The experience began in a professional kitchen, where students explored culinary techniques and gained valuable insight into the fast-paced world of professional cookery. Under the guidance of Chef Giovani, they learned to craft fresh pasta from scratch, skillfully shaping Ravioli and Tortellini. Their newfound skills were put to the test as they prepared their own spicy pasta dishes.
Next, pupils stepped into the world of baking. They rolled out cookie dough, baked and decorated cookies, then moved on to decorating doughnuts with creativity and flair.
To round off the day, they explored the art of Mixology, crafting refreshing non-alcoholic Mojitos.
The experience left pupils inspired and excited about potential careers in the food and hospitality industry.
A huge thank you to all the staff at UCB for creating such a memorable experience for our pupils! Your dedication and effort made a real difference.
