In December, our year 9 pupils were given the opportunity to take part in the 'Tasty Careers Challenge' Competition.
The challenge this year was to work in teams to design a new healthy food or drink product made from as much local Welsh produce as possible. The brief given to the pupils was that they had been approached by a well-known food and drink manufacturer asking them to come up with a new product that had clear health benefits, is sustainable and is also a great commercial proposition. The product needed to be original, with an original brand name, logo and slogan and ideally needed to be presented in a 500g/ml package. They also needed to present their idea to a panel of judges. We welcomed Rhian and Phoebe from Food Centre Wales to judge, and they have also worked with the winning group in preparation for the next round.
'Merched Mêl' won the school round and they represented the school last Friday in the next round. Many congratulations to the girls, as they will now be competing in the final next month in Parc y Sgarlets. Well done girls, and good luck!
