Level 3 Weekend Cookery Graduation Lunch

Sudjono Jap, Jaewoo Park, Bella Kozak, Yifng (Kevin) Xu, Maggie Ling, Jennyvie Ruiz, Dalene Gourley, Chef Nicolas Drexler.

Since February, a dedicated group of students has gathered every weekend to study for the New Zealand Certificate in Cookery (Level 3). Many of them work full-time during the week, so attending this weekend course provides both a welcome break from their regular routines, and some delicious food to take home, along with some time management challenges.

Chef Nic Drexler has led the group as their tutor, and over the months, the students have developed strong connections with each other.

As is tradition with this course, we like to invite students’ families to a special luncheon, where the students plan, prepare, and serve the menu themselves. Here are some photos from the recent lunch.
