Culinary Exchange!

Today some second year Home Economics students experienced a culinary delight as their classmate Sophia Chen dazzled us with her skills and technique of making spring rolls. Students are currently learning about different types of pastry and their uses. Sophia informed the class about how to handle and prepare filo pastry, the combinations of fillings used, how to wrap and roll correctly and the importance of cooking till golden brown. For some students it was their first time tasting spring rolls. All students were delighted with the step-by-step rolling instructions demonstrated by Sophia. They are going to attempt to make spring rolls at home in the coming weeks. The flaky, crispy, golden spring rolls were a real crowd pleaser and enjoyed by all. Thank you Sophia!

Man of the Match

Well done Robbie and the Munster team. A tough game today vs Connacht in windy conditions finished 0-0 with both teams having some great chances. A 2-0 win over Ulster, 2-2 draw with Leinster and today’s draw with Connacht was enough to see Munster retain their School’s Interpro title from last year. A great performance by team captain Robbie saw him take the player of the match award today.

Best of luck to Robbie Lynch who has been representing Hazelwood College in the FAI Schools Interprovincial Tournament this weekend.
