Last week was Home Economics week in St Angela’s College. Home Economics is a subject with many components – theory, practical cookery and textiles/crafts. Work completed by Home Economics students was on display to give the other students an insight into the subject.
A display of crafts and baked items were on view in reception. Some very creative and skillful pieces have been completed. Well done to all the girls on their excellent work. Many thanks to all the students who entered the daily quiz.
A variety of activities were held to mark Home Ec. week including the following:
