Course: Hospitality
Graduated: 2016
School: Waimea College
Chloe’s goal is to train as a chef and work in restaurants around the world. She is enjoying the experience of Trades and having the opportunity to work in a real commercial kitchen, creating meals just as you would in a restaurant.
“This course teaches me the skills I need. In Trades you get to find out about the pressures of working in a kitchen and seeing if you can cope with that. Because we’re here for a whole day we can prepare food that takes a bit longer to cook, without the stress of limited time. We’ve cooked all sorts of different things – one of my favourites was making Italian bread.
“I’d recommend this course to anyone who wants to be a chef. It’s a great experience and the tutor is always friendly and he never panics!”
