Cooking classes- for children

Two days ago, we held our second cooking class workshop for children in our community. This is in line with Food In Focus Nutrition’s mission, to reduce diseases linked to poor nutrition. We believe that cooking skills and nutritional knowledge is the key to better health outlook for most Australians.
By teaching basic cooking skills, simple nutrition and sharing meals together in a relaxed environment, the children learn what real food is, what a balanced meal contains AND how food brings them together at the table.
A healthy lifestyle is not only about healthy so called “Super foods” (which most often is foods what we humans always been consuming anyway, (such as rolled oats, quinoa or berries), it is also about HOW we eat and WHY.
Our hope is that children who get the chance to learn one of the most important skill sets in life, cooking, will also grow to understand that REAL food taste best. It will also help them later in life, when establishing their own lives, to know how to feed themselves regardless of budget or taste.
With such an important mission, we will run more of these classes (and classes for adults) in the future.
