Mrs Thorpe, our DT Food Technology teacher, has launched a pancake competition with a difference for 2021. Not only will budding chefs be able to win a prize with their pancake skills, our students with a flair for design and engineering will also have the chance to flex their creative muscles and be in with an equal chance of winning.

Students choose from one of two challenges - either Challenge A, which is the Chef Challenge or Challenge B which is the Design and Engineering Challenge.

  • For Challenge A, students are asked to design and make a creative sweet or savoury pancake that uses at least two fruits or vegetables in its design. Marks will be awarded for creativity and imagination, promoting healthy eating, and incorporating a variety of skills including pouring, mixing and chopping.
  • For Challenge B, students are asked to design and make a 3D pancake object or scene using either sweet or savoury pancakes. Marks will be awarded for creativity and imagination, structure and design, and use of colour and pattern.

First, second and third prizes will be awarded for the winning designs.
