LinguaChef An FE, HE, industry and school collaboration Angela de Britos Professional Development Officer
LinguaChef The competition brings together two of our favourite topics - languages and food! As well as practising linguistic and culinary skills, pupils work on their wider social, literacy, numeracy and financial skills. A collaboration between SCILT @ the University of Strathclyde, City of Glasgow College, industry and schools nationwide. Four categories: P1- 3; P4-7 (dessert) S1-3; S4-6 (main course) Pupils work in teams of 2 or 3 to submit a recipe for an international dish symbolic of a country where either a language they are learning in school or a language that pupils use at home is spoken. We also encourage pupils to be creative, for example they could incorporate a bit of Scottish ‘fusion’ into their recipe to give it a twist.

Feedback I love this place, it's awesome to come here and actually cook our dishes. (Pupil) It was amazing. I was feeling a little bit nervous earlier but happy at the same time. (Pupil) I didn't think we would win. It just goes to show that you should never give up and always believe in yourself. (Pupil) This has been a fantastic opportunity to learn Spanish in a new, exciting context. The pupils enjoyed working together as a team. (Teacher) This was a great day. It has been an amazing opportunity for us. (Pupil) I was so chuffed to hear we'd won. I liked sharing my experience of cooking and languages, and seeing all the other teams' creations. (Pupil) Just wunderbar! (Teacher) This is a fantastic opportunity for the pupils to research the history and background of a dish, work together and learn new vocabulary in the target language. (Teacher) It was really fun. I’d definitely do it again. (Pupil) I feel like I learned a lot of skills in cooking, languages and working with my team. (Pupil)
