My aim is to teach children to prepare a wholesome, nutritious meal which they can reproduce at home. Hygiene, nutrition – and loads of laughs – are also on the agenda. Classes may be held at your home or mine in North Sydney. The children eat the food they have prepared at the end of the class and take home whatever is left over. I also take them into my cook’s garden to identify (and pick) organic vegies and herbs.
Cost of the classes: $60. Deposit of $30 required – I’ll send details sent when you make the booking.
Ages 8-16. Limit of 12 per class.
Kids cooking classes are held during the school holidays for groups of 8- 12.
APRIL 2010 school holiday dates:
Tuesday April 6th Friday 9th, 10.30am – 1.30pm
Wednesday 14th and Friday 16th,10.30am – 1.30pm
Please let me know if any of the children have allegies (to nuts, eggs) or any special dietary requirements.

“That was the most beautiful day of my life,” 8 year old Bella 13/1/2010
Bless you, Sheridan. And thank you. Jake had a terrific time and has been raving about how much fun it was and how kind you were to him. Lisa and I both appreciate it and ask you to inform us next time you have a class that you think Jake – or our 7 year-old, Louis, would fit in well too.
Warmly, Peter FitzSimons
