Big Chef, Little Chef family cooking programme was delivered in the centre by Jen Dawson, CLD Homelink Worker and was funded by the Family Learning Centre.

The programme ran for three weeks from Friday 1st – 18th May.

A total of 10 families participated over the 3 sessions.

Much fun was had as families learned new recipes, tried new foods and developed new skills throughout the programme. Our little chef’s loved squeezing their own orange juice and using a spiralizer to make courgette spaghetti hair!

Over the 3 weeks we made:

Healthy cheese & salad wrap / Fresh fruit salad

Vegetable kebabs / Apple crumble

Mini Happy Face Pizzas / Fruit kebabs

“I loved spending time with my son , doing new things and him trying new foods that he has never have put in his mouth before.”

“I enjoy spending fun time with my son, watching him learn new skills. He doesn’t usually want to try new foods but he did today.”

“I enjoyed going things with my daughter one-to-one. She listened was careful and we talked whilst preparing the food. She enjoyed every minute of the class, chopping and trying every piece of food.

“Really enjoy coming to the classes, getting to meet and talk with other parents and spending time with my son.”

“Creating faces for pizza. He had lots of fun doing this. So nice to see him smile and laugh while following instructions.

“I have enjoyed everything- how well my child has developed in her confidence. Well Done!”

“Enjoyed the 1-1 time. Enjoyed trying new food, and making cookery fun!
