Courses
Two ten-week courses funded through the NDIS — one baking at Palm Beach, one healthy cooking at Helensvale, both starting Saturday 21 November — and a school holiday baking workshop open to any child. All provide everything, and all keep groups small.
Ten weeks, ten skills, one certificate. From cookies and bread to chocolate making, participants build real kitchen ability week by week — finishing with a competition and a graduation ceremony.
Ten weeks, thirty-two meals. Participants cook twelve breakfasts, eight lunches and twelve dinners from scratch, starting with food that needs no cooking at all and finishing with a full dinner they can make at home on their own. Our newest course, starting 21 November.
School holiday baking for ages 4–14, running 14–18 December 2026 and 18–22 January 2027. Morning, afternoon or Thursday evening classes, never more than 10 children in a group, and everything provided. Book a single class or the whole fortnight — open to everyone, no NDIS plan needed.
