Good evening parents, my name is Mdm absa representing the Home Economics Unit. Your child had taken the subject last year in the first semester and will be taking it again this year in the 2 nd semester. The reason I’m here tonight is to share with you on our subject ‘Food and Nutrition’ that is taken at O’level.
Extreme subject: F&N is considered as ‘other subject’ when computing your L1R4/R5 component however in some courses in polytechnics though it can be considered as a relevant subject. This subject are normally taken by students for 4 reasons namely as a spare subject that can bring an advantage over other students when scoring, a useful subject that helps our Na studnets in their O’level conversion, as a relevant subject for certain courses and last but not least student that do F&N acquire a lifelong skill is heavily tapped upon in polytechnics, higher learning and more importantly in our life.
