Young Chef
Cooking · life skills · confidence
Real food, real kitchens, real pride. Students learn to cook from scratch, safely, creatively, and with plenty of tasting along the way. Sessions focus on healthy dishes made mainly from fresh produce, and every session is hands-on from start to finish, including the eating part.
Learning objective: By the end of the programme, students will be able to prepare a simple dish from scratch (for example pasta with tomato sauce or a seasonal soup), following a recipe, using basic kitchen tools safely, and serving it to others.
Now running at Berlin Metropolitan School for Kindergarten to Grade 2. BMS families sign up through the school's club registration.
