Supporters of Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution http://www.wellingtonfoodies.co.nz/ #!kids/cvde Foodie and Mother, Lucy Mutch and Nutrition and Fitness Specialist, Debbie Lanz have teamed up with Elements Cooking School in Lyall Bay to create these very special cooking classes for children ages 5-15. Ensuring that your child has a good relationship with food is integral to their development and well being. A child that has an understanding of what they eat and that is encouraged to cook, will make better food choices. We are all about fun and variety. Each of our classes is based around a global theme. Whether we are making tamales and tortilla's, sushi, Thai noodle salad, healthy pizza, pasta or bread, it is all about keeping it fun, educational and hands on. We're not just about cooking.... We want every child to go away with an understanding of where their food comes from. We will explore the benefits of eating a variety of different fruits, vegetables and herbs in a "fun fact" Q and A. Each child will plant three different herbs that they'll be able to take home and nurture. Finding exciting and varied meals for lunchbox fillers is always a bit of a challenge. Children will take home a leaflet that contains a few quick, easy and healthy recipe ideas designed to keep them functioning well throughout the busy school day.
