This week our Advanced cookery students designed a three-course menu that includes a fish dish, involving the filleting of a fish, freshly made pasta - ribbon or ravioli, plus dessert - all with a Mediterranean theme.
This is one of our most popular projects as the students must design a three-course menu, cost it in a spreadsheet to meet a specific budget, create a menu card and timeplan to help them execute the tasks. They must serve the menu to a guest who arrives at 12.30. Everything is done on the day. The students also get to sit with their guest to savour and enjoy their creations.

Along with our cookery students, the Food & Beverage, Level 4 students showcased excellent wine and food service to the guests.

Some of the dishes prepared were -
- Pan seared fish with salsa and mesclun salad
- Fettuccine Al Burro with handmade pasta
- Semolina cake soaked in orange blossom syrup, rosewater sorbet, pistachio crumb & candied orange peel

Auckland Council and the Auckland RSA have come together to provide plenty of opportunities for Aucklanders to honour the military veterans who displayed courage serving our country.

Although the number of in-person services and ceremonies across the region is reduced as a result of the red-light setting during planning, there are still many ways to commemorate at home or in the community.

The dawn service at the Auckland War Memorial Museum is limited to veterans and invited guests only. The public are encouraged to view the service at home on Māori Television.

Visit ourauckland.nz/anzacday for ways to commemorate Anzac Day.

Tēnā koutou. Councillors have shut down a proposal to turn Chelsea Estate Heritage Park into a regional park.

The idea, which involves amalgamating the park with two other North Shore parks, has been mooted since the 1990s.

However, a formal proposal by the Kaipātiki Local Board has now been investigated, and rejected, by Auckland Council.

If amalgamated with the neighbouring Kauri Point Centennial Park and Chatswood Reserve, the regional park would have the largest and most diverse coastal habitat in central Auckland’s urban zone.

Local board chairman John Gillon said the park’s upkeep had dipped, falling below the standards of the purchase agreement with Chelsea Sugar, and believed regional park status could see a ranger stationed at the park to advocate for its maintenance.

But on April 7, the majority of the council’s parks, arts, community and events committee voted against the proposal, saying there was not enough evidence to suggest the park’s maintenance would improve with regional park status.
