Projects 2011
Marking Race Relations Day- “Medley” The Northcote College Family favourites cookbook 2011

From Cape to Cairo, the States to Stockholm, Apia to Albania, Northcote College has a student or staff member from most countries in the world we share. As a result, we have a very multicultural school. To celebrate Race Relations day 2011, we have initiated a project that we hope will capture the cultures and influences that make up our school. We invite students, staff, family, and friends of the school to share a ‘family favourite’ recipe. By doing so, you can aid us in our endeavour to compose a ‘Medley’ of recipes from a ‘Medley’ of cultures, available to all on the Northcote College website. Launched at Assembly on 21 March 2011.
