Tech at Tamaki College

“MMMM YUM!” stated the kids in food tech as they tried their delectable and delicious food. Mrs Heka and the food tech students like baking delicious treats that they might want to eat.Every Thursday Yr 8 students from Pt England School get the chance to experience some of the technology that might happen at college next year. This takes takes place at Tamaki College. Every term we get to switch. Apparently this is our last tech for the year. But for those who is going to this college gets the opportunity to stay and learn the same things and more.

The technologies are Food, Hard Materials (Wood) and Japanese. The teachers to all these wonderful yet tricky technologies are Ms Heka (Food), Mr Grundy (Wood) and Mr Ishibashi (Japanese). These wonderful teachers teach us many things to learn. We have fun most times and sometimes its just silly.

This Thursday was a very interesting Thursday in food tech. So interesting that we had to bake by ourselves. 6 cooks anxiously waiting to find out what they were going to bake. “We are going to bake muffins” said Ms Heka. “All you need to do is get your trollies and get your equipment ready” ordered Ms Heka. 

Quickly we prepared our equipment and  started to get the ingredients. Sometimes one of the bakers would always make a mistake and that person was Toko.

When the muffins came out of the oven we put them on the cooling rack to cool down. As they were cooling we were busy cleaning benches and the top of our stoves. 

“MMMM YUM!” everyone except me enjoyed the gooey yogurt that was inside the delectable treat. Mrs Heka was very proud of the 6 students that was in her class. “This is more better than having 18 students” she said smartly.
