Junior Chef 2025 – A Celebration of Young Talent

Sacred Heart College was thrilled to host the 2025 Junior Chef Competition, welcoming enthusiastic primary school teams into our kitchens for a day of creativity, teamwork, and culinary fun.

The competition was incredibly close, with students impressing our judges through their organisation, collaboration, and passion for cooking. Dishes were praised for their flavour, texture, and vibrant presentation — a true showcase of skills beyond primary school expectations.

Congratulations to the winning team from St Brigid’s, who claimed the 2025 Junior Chef title!

We also extend our thanks to all participating schools, students, and staff. Every team should feel proud of their achievements, and we hope this experience becomes a highlight of their school years.

The Junior Chef Competition reflects our commitment to providing fun yet challenging opportunities for students, while also giving our hospitality students the chance to mentor and support younger learners.

We were delighted to welcome our incredible Guest Judges, who generously gave their time to support and inspire our Junior Chefs. It was an honour to have them at the event, and we were truly grateful for the expertise, encouragement, and passion they brought, helping to make the day both memorable and inspiring for all participants.
