06 Oct Business students cause a big stir!
On Friday 29th September, the Business Department hosted the Big Stir Coffee Morning. Year 12 BTEC Business students delivered hot drinks to staff. Miss Ryzak arranged a bake off encouraging the Year 8 students to get baking and submitted their delicious cakes for judging. The judges were the reigning staff bake off champion, Mr Marks and the wonderful Mr Hargreaves from the Food and Catering Department.
The winning cake was made by Callie Claxton from 8J. The judges said her cake was a wonderfully light sponge, with delicious chocolate cream. The piñata surprise was fun. The decoration, although slightly untidy was a real show stopper.’
Other excellent contributions included a lovely picnic inspired cake from Summer Cox of 8I. The judges said the sponge itself was very nice, very light with a nice flavour. The decoration had clearly taken time and effort. Gloriane Kabeya in 8F made a well balanced chocolate flavour sponge. The decoration was colourful and bold although the sponge was slightly dry. Liberty Baxter-Ashworth 8J, fantastic chocolate flavour in the sponge and although the sponge was a tad on the dry side, the cake was exquisitely decorated. Other wonderful student cakes were made by Filip Zajdler 8H, Enisa Kurta 8H, Chelsea Akposheri-Oweh 8C, Libbi Kelly, Chelsea Boanerges-Kihan, Mihaela Costache and Ciara Fidami Khida all from 8D.
Not only did Arthur Garner from 8I bake a delicious cake, he also helped to sell all of the cakes during the lunch breaks. He is a natural businessperson with real enterprising spirit.
Overall, the students raised £210 for Macmillan Cancer support. The Business Department are very proud of the Year 12 BTEC Business students’ ability to manage a business event, which is part of their assessed course. This event was a practice run for when they organise a winter fair and the lower school disco later on in the year.
