• Adult Only Cooking Session

  Wed 31 Jan 2018

  On Wednesday of this week it was the first of our adult only cooking sessions in partnership with Bristol Community Learning. On the menu was a tomato based Mediterranean pasta or mushroom, sweetcorn and pesto pasta. Thank you to everyone who took part! During the session Laura (the course tutor) gave information about the British Heart Foundation’s food label decoder. This helps us see the levels of fats and sugars in food.

• Cooking with Your Child- Session 2

  Wed 24 Jan 2018

  On Wednesday 24th January it was the last of our ‘cooking with your child’ sessions in partnership with Bristol Community Learning. Next week will be the first of our adult only cooking sessions where we will take charge of our Learning Centre (LC) kitchen to do some hot cooking!

   

  Following feedback from the Bristol Community Learning sessions we are in the process of setting up some new courses. If you have any ideas of adult learning you’d be interested in please do let us know and we will do our best in making this happen for you and your child in school. Some popular ideas so far include yoga and Zumba for fitness and well-being, first aid, healthy cooking on a budget, ICT and gardening.

Laura taught us how to make healthy bulgur wheat salad and fresh pizzas. Laura also spoke to us about the ‘The Eatwell Plate’, we were all surprised to see how much sugar can be found in foods that we might consider as healthy options.
