Details

This is a statewide celebration of WA’s unique bushfoods, cultural stories, and student creativity. Schools across Western Australia are invited to take part in an inspiring learning journey that connects students with Country, community, and contemporary food education. Through research, design, storytelling, and handson cooking, students create dishes that honour ancient knowledge while imagining new food futures.

This is more than a culinary challenge — it is a meaningful, culturally grounded learning journey that brings curriculum to life. The School Package ensures your teachers feel supported and your students feel inspired as they explore the stories, landscapes, and flavours of Western Australia.

This School Package provides everything your school will need to participate confidently and successfully in the 2026 competition.
