Many of the next generation of aspiring chefs are still in school, but if the high quality of recent entries in the THA Tasmanian School Cooking Challenge are anything to go by, the future of our restaurants will be in safe hands. This year the THA launched the challenge as a competition open to all students in years 9-12. The aim of the challenge is to celebrate the great work happening in Tasmanian schools, motivate students to strive for their best, and to have a competition platform that is easily accessible for schools and set up so that participation can’t be stalled or delayed by Covid. The Term 1 challenge focused around highlighting Tasmanian produce with students needing to write a recipe and prepare a dish celebrating berry fruit. Judges were blown away by the high standard of entries, with students clearly demonstrating their creativity, high level of skills and focus on presentation. Challenge winners for Term 1 were: • Overall Winner - Skye Furlonge (Launceston College) - Chocolate Berry Ball • Best Presentation - Jaymee Wright (Launceston College) - Raspberry Mille-Feuille with Lemon Curd • Brave & Bold - Nay Lowrey (Don College) - Lamb Chops with Berry Mint Sauce • Innovative - Rebekah Filleul (Wynyard High) Cheesecake Sandwich Great Team Effort - Mountain Heights School • Outstanding Achievement by a School - Latrobe High
The Term 2 Technique Challenge is encouraging students to demonstrate their baking skills and is currently accepting entries. Terms 3 and 4 will see students focusing on their skills on an international cuisine and a personal inspiration. You can follow Challenge entries on Instagram at: thaschoolcookingchallenge
