Fridays 4 - 6.30 pm (Once a month)
Does your child love food, or is he or she curious about cooking? Are you looking to spark their interest and start them on a path of independence, with inspiration for wholesome and healthy meals you can also cook together? Do you want to teach your child foods of the world? Kids Cookery Club is just the treat for you.
Sign up your young chefs from 7 - 15 year-olds. (younger children may be considered if parents are confident of their skills and happy to supervise during class)
As a professional chef, cookery writer and former tv chef, I set up the kids cookery club after many parents in our adult cookery classes expressed an interest in empowering their children to learn to cook and broaden their horizons.
After working on tv for a few years, I have grown a community of food lovers for catering, media publishing, top brands and clients such as Tilda Rice, Le Creuset, Neptune Homes, Miele and more with cookery schools run across London and the South East and in collaboration with the likes of Wefifo & Waitrose Cookery School. I am also a regular contributor on BBC Sussex & Surrey, where I share recipes on air with listeners. Our new cookery school in Eastbourne is much needed in the community, to inspire and empower us to eat well and to bring people together. Read more about me here.

Cooking as an important life skill
Taught by experienced chefs, bakers and teachers, your children will learn valuable cooking skills, which include understanding ingredients and seasonal produce as they cook with well-sourced ingredients, cleanliness, health and safety in the kitchen, tips to avoid waste, healthy eating habits and more.
They will learn and develop knife skills, reading and social skills, how to work as a team, confidence in the kitchen, how to cook complete meals from different parts of the world and most importantly, independence.
Cooking as a fun activity
While learning, your children will have a lot of fun cooking together, creating delicious meals from scratch and of course eating their creations or taking it home.
And you are invited to be part of it. Book through our crowdfunding page here, and your child’s name will be included on our Founders’ Wall for all to see what you helped create!
