20 Boys from Year 10 were invited to visit the world famous Billingsgate Fish Market in the Docklands. The aim of the trip with Mr McGregor was to develop a knowledge of eating seafood. The day started with a skills demonstartion, where they were taken through the various stages in fish preparation, while the fishmonger talked to them how fish is caught, where it comes from, and how to tell good quality fish, they then moved to the kitchen where they were given the chance to prepare some simple seafood dishes themselves and this was followed by the most popular part of the day, the tasting!
 
Some of the boys proved excellent cooks, move over Rick Stein!!!
