Home Ec at Campbell Collegiate

Campbell Collegiate offers a full range of classes in Home Ec. for students at all levels from Grade 9 through Grade 12.

GRADE 9

All Grade 9 students are enrolled in class that has a three rotation including 30 days in Home Ec; 30 days in Health; and 30 days in Industrial Arts.  In the Home Ec rotation students will make a hoodie (22 days), cook 3 times, and complete a Lifeskills Project to get ready for "Life After Living at Home." 

An elective in Grade 9 is a second class in Home Ec/Industrial Arts (45 hours in each).  In the Home Ec portion, students spend 25 hours in the Foods Lab preparing recipes such as Chocolate Chip Cookies, Apple Cinnamon Muffins, Cinnamon Biscuits, Pasta Paremsan, Apple Crisp and Ice Cream, Omelets and Orange Julius, Taco Salad, and Pizza.  In 10 -15 days we make a pair of pyjamas and in the remaining 5 - 10 hours we learn to make some financial decisions about credit, credit cards, debit cards, cell phone plans and automobile insurance contracts.

A small housing project rounds out the course.
