Home economics class, 1994

In the 1970s gender distinctions in the curriculum began to be removed, so that both boys and girls could do cooking, sewing, woodwork and metalwork in Years 7 and 8. In high schools, too, home-science subjects became open to both boys and girls. Here, a boy tries his hand at flipping a pancake in a home economics class at Tawa College in 1994.
