The girls are representing County Armagh in the Mount Charles Big School Cook Off Competition, in association with SuperValu, taking place at Belfast Metropolitan College, Titanic Quarter, on March 4.
As part of the competition, shortlisted schools were invited by their local SuperValu store to perform a cookery demonstration and Martha and Tilly cooked their ‘Burrito Special’ dish, showing why they were worthy County winners.

“The Mount Charles Big School Cook Off Competition is a great opportunity and experience for the girls to display their high-level cooking skills and will boost their confidence immensely.”
