Child, Pupil & Family Sessions

 

Our child, pupil and family cooking sessions can be run as a ‘one off’ session or as a course over several weeks. During the sessions, participants will learn about healthy eating and work together to prepare simple, healthy, economical and age-appropriate dishes.

 

We normally run 2 practical workshops per half day. Depending on age and ability, our workshops last between 40-60 minutes and we can accommodate a maximum of 16 people per activity. All of the food prepared is taken away or eaten at the end of the session.

 

The sessions cover a variety of topics, such as:

• Basic food preparation skills (knife skills, rubbing in method, bread making etc)

• Basic healthy eating and nutrition messages

• Recipe adaption and preparation of healthy meals

• Meal planning and budgeting

• Basic food hygiene messages

• Developing literacy and numeracy skills
