Cookery

"Cooking is all about people. Food is maybe the only universal thing that really has the power to bring everyone together. No matter what culture, everywhere around the world, people eat together." - Guy Fieri

Cookery is part of the Art, Design and Technology Department at New Hall.  We strive to inspire students to foster and develop an essential life skill.  Cooking does not only allow students to be able to produce food for themselves, family and friends, it also enables them to critically discuss the typology of a balanced diet, deploy plant-based substitutes and embrace sustainability.

Cookery is an enriching part of the curriculum for all children from Year 5 to Year 9 and there are a series of popular co-curricular sessions across all year groups.  A highlight of this provision is collaboration with other subject areas, notably the Languages Departments, to create innovative and memorable learning experiences.

Cookery at New Hall empowers the next generation to be inventive and adventurous in their food choices.  It also teaches our students to try new things, embrace different cultures and to develop their palates.
