About the Competition
The Secondary School Burger Competition is a culmination of 12-15 lessons based on a comprehensive Teacher Resource Kit, designed to lead food technology students through the process of designing, testing and perfecting a burger. Schools then select their best junior student (years 9 and 10) and best senior student (years 11, 12 and 13) to represent them at the regional finals at the end of Term Two. Winners from each region then go on to compete in the grand final in Term Three.
