We are participants in the School Leavers Support Group, and we decided to open a Café in the Goulburn centre. Several of us had previously passed a certificate of obtainment in a barista course, so we thought we would put our skills to good use. In opening the Café, we have built on our skills considerably. We have learnt:
- Customer service
- Money skills
- Budgeting
- Issuing receipts
- Balancing books
- Menu planning
- Menu designing
- Organisation
- Hospitality
- Meal prep
- Cooking
We started out making simple coffees, moved on to making all different types of coffee with homemade cake and now we provide a lunch order service every Friday. We provide our customers with a loyalty card and a big smile each day.
CHLOE – Brings happiness to the place.
JOSH – Gives us work experience.
TOM – I like making coffee and hot chocolate.
WILLIAM – I like giving people coffee and hot chocolate.
LEIF – The best coffee I ever had.
It makes us feel good to be able to provide a great service.
