Well done Kio Kio Kitchen Kids- we are proud of you!
Yesterday 4 of our students travelled to Auckland to participate in the regional finals of the Maggi Kitchen Showdown.
As yet they have no idea whether or not they have made it into the finals, but the experience of being under pressure, performing in front of a camera, meeting a time-frame, staying cool even when the judges asked tricky questions- all the while not having an accident with a sharp knife (even the Masterchefs have their moments like that), was well worthwhile. The team (along with their ever patient teacher) was still buzzing with excitement on their return late in the afternoon.
We are very proud of their achievement, their cooking skills, and their resilience under pressure.
