Top Chef

The Top Chef programme was created for children and teenagers who are developing an interest in cooking and their own food preferences. Its main aim is to teach good cooking skills and help them change less beneficial eating habits.

Children and teenagers learn to prepare meals, baked goods and desserts independently, using fresh ingredients adapted to their tastes. They cook in groups, sharing responsibility for each step of the recipes and developing social skills and a sense of responsibility.

Children learn
  • To cook, bake, knead, cut and mix
  • To handle ingredients correctly
  • Meal categories: breakfast, morning snacks, mid-morning snacks, lunch, afternoon snacks and dinner
  • To distinguish between cooking, pastry-making and baking recipes
  • To practise fine motor skills safely in the kitchen
  • To develop cooperation and communication

The programme is led by a creative cooking facilitator (educator) and the school’s Chef.

Children spend their time enjoyably and creatively, preparing dishes themselves and tasting them at the end of each lesson.
