COOKING CAMP WITH MRS COOTE

YEARS 2 & 3 and 4 & 5

> Holiday Camps > Cooking Camp
Join Our Summer Cooking Camp!
 
Join Mrs Coote, our current Pre-Prep Cooking Specialist, for a fun-filled Cooking Camp where young chefs get hands-on in the kitchen all day! Throughout the camp, children will learn valuable culinary skills, including baking techniques, safe food preparation, kitchen confidence, and how to design and create their own menus.
In the morning, campers will bake delicious savoury snacks such as mini cheddars, breadsticks, and other tasty treats while learning key baking techniques, before sitting down together to enjoy what they’ve made.
 
In the afternoon, the focus shifts to building confidence in the kitchen, with students preparing a fresh dish such as a colourful ratatouille to take home for dinner. Children will also have the opportunity to explore creativity in the kitchen by planning and designing parts of their own menu within the camp.
 
It’s the perfect mix of creativity, practical skills, teamwork, and delicious food — all in a safe and supportive environment.
 

A 10% discount will be applied to Summer weekly bookings (excluding 11+ Revision Camp)
