Four Spectra Secondary School students turned their passion for cooking into an award-winning local-themed sushi roll, which will soon be sold at 11 Maki-San sushi outlets as part of National Day celebrations.

The Secondary 4 students, part of the school’s culinary arts club, won third place at last year’s Youth Entrepreneurs Competition organised by the Singapore Discovery Centre for their laksa, otah and chicken char siew sushi creations.

Ms Veron Ng, 43, teacher-in-charge of the club said that the school wanted to show the students that their work and products can be marketable to the public, and so they contacted the local sushi chain to float the idea of a collaboration.

It is among the special creations and promotions that businesses are offering to celebrate National Day, including discounts of 52 per cent in conjunction with the nation’s 52nd birthday.
