Children's Cookery Adventure

13 August 2025, 21 August 2025

£100 per adult & child pair

Children’s Cookery advenTure

Join us for a fun and hands-on cookery class where children team up with an adult to create a delicious meal from scratch!

In this hands-on experience, little chefs will work side-by-side with their grown-up helpers, learning basic cooking skills, and how to measure, chop, and mix ingredients to create delicious dishes. Once the meal is ready, sit down together to enjoy the fruits of your labour, sharing the joy of good food and great company. It’s a perfect way to spend time together, learn, and enjoy a tasty meal you’ve both helped prepare.

Suitable for ages 7 and over. 

The price covers 1 child and 1 adult. An additional child can be added for an extra £30, and you’ll cook as a 3 at a workstation. Please email cook@vegsoc.org to book any additional child places. 

All recipes are subject to availability of ingredients.

You’ll be able to make the recipes you learn on this class at home, time and time again. After your cookery experience, you will be emailed a pack for you to keep containing all of the recipes you learned on the day.
