P5/6 are getting ready for their special visit from Stewart Collins of S Collins & Son’s Butchers, Muirhead and Chef Adrian, an Irish Celebrity Chef on Wednesday 17 June from 10.00am -12.30pm.
Chef Adrian is an Irish Celebrity Chef who works as ambassador for Craft Butchers in Ireland. Healso appears weekly on National television in Ireland and has his own cooking show on Sky. He travels from town to town teaching people all about cooking and sharing the knowledge he has picked up from working in some of Ireland’s top restaurants. Adrian has been voted in the top 15 Rising Stars in 2015. He has teamed up with S Collins & Son’s Butchers in Muirhead to promote and share the great quality of produce that this Q Guild Butcher has to offer in Scotland.
Chef Adrian will bring experience, knowledge and fun for our pupils. Adrian will focus on the importance of healthy eating with the pupils, cooking from scratch and the importance of quality ingredients from the local butcher. Adrian will be joined by Stewart Collins and will work hand in hand with the butcher. Each of our P5/6 pupils will receive recipes and maybe a little gift from Stewart if they are lucky.
Adrian will deliver a powerpoint presentation about healthy eating, cheap value cuts of meat and why it’s important to shop for quality with their local butcher when cooking. He will then proceed to cook 3 dishes for the pupils showing them everything from scratch. The cooking segment involves interaction and involvement from the pupils and gives them an insight into good cooking and good skills to take home and practice.
Sky TV may film this event so all P5/6 parents are asked to please complete and return the Sky TV Photography Consent Form overleaf as soon as possible so that we are prepared should filming go ahead. Thank you for your anticipated support in returning the consent form before the event on 17 June.
