Home economics and culinary arts at NWSS

Home economics teaches practical skills for everyday life. Courses focus on areas like food and nutrition, cooking, child development, textiles, and more. These skills support healthy independence and responsible citizenship, both locally and globally.

Our teachers are experience, care about what they teach, and bring real-life experience into the classroom. They make learning hands-on and support all kinds of learners.
