The Kids Cookery Co.

The Kids' Cookery Co. - Cooking Classes for Ages 2–12

 

Hands-on cooking adventures for little chefs!

From tiny tasters to budding master bakers, our classes give children aged 2–12 the chance to learn, create, and enjoy healthy, delicious food. Each session is hands-on, fun, and designed to build confidence, independence, and kitchen skills.

How It Works

• 6-week terms (1 class per week, 45 - 60 mins)

• Small groups for focused, hands-on learning

• Ages 2–12 (Parents are required to stay in our Mini Sensory class ages 2-4 years)

• Includes: Recipe cards to take home + badges/certificates for each level

Each session includes:

• Mini lesson on the week’s theme (healthy swaps, seasonal ingredients, flavour fun)

• Guided cooking activity from start to finish

• Tasting and decorating time

• Clean-up, reflection, and stamp/sticker rewards in their Chef Passport
