Oaklands School
Being a Chef
Being a Cook
The children will learn the skills required to plan, cook and evaluate meals from their geographical area of study. Each lesson will have a focus on the key hygiene elements that all children need to know as they become more confident working with a variety of foods in our training kitchen.
The children develop their skills of being a cook through the following steps.
The Beehive
Situated within the real school kitchen, lies our very own training kitchen, ‘The Beehive’. Here, the children get the opportunity to be chefs. In here, they learn how to prepare and produce their own tasty treats and meals.
This allows the children to work alongside real cooks as they prepare the meals in the school. Working alongside, they can learn professional skills for their own meals.
