A must for all the budding cooks out there. Children's cookery classes, based in Leigh on sea, Essex. .
Come along and have some fun cooking with Sarah. My teaching style is very much hands on, with the children following along with me, to create their own dishes to take home. They will also have the opportunity to try some out from what I make before the class to show them. We ensure as much goes home with them as well from their own creations.
The children will be preparing the ingredients they require (some recipes I may make up batches of items like cooled down rice's), but they will still see the process to make it.
As part of each workshop, the children will learn knife skills for cutting up ingredients, looking at flavours that work well together, writing up ingredients required on template recipe sheets (we will ensure the methods are pre-typed). We will also, if time allows, look at prices for ingredients to work out costs per portions to make.
The children, as part of the workshop attendance, will be required to keep workstations clean and tidy and will be required to sign a mini friendly terms of respect for their conduct whilst on the premises, to staff and other children attending. So things like listening, following instructions, being kind to others, and safely working.
Each fortnight there will be new recipes, with various different days and times each week to pick from. For Our Home Ed drop off sessions it will be a maximum of 6 children. Parents will drop off and leave with us.
Each session they will learn to prepare and cook three different dishes.
Sarah and staff working with the children are enhanced DBS checked. We also have CCTV around our premises.

Cancellation policy: at this time we are not able to refund any cancelled booking if you are not able to attend. If we have a waiting list of people that can take your tickets we will try our best to sell them again for you, but this is not always possible at short notice. Booking is at your own risk. We are such a small business that we would not survive if we lost customers on each booking and they required refunds, as our event would not be covered for the cost of entertainment, staff and food if part of ticket fee.
