Cook Stars offers structured sessions that centre around children making their own delicious dishes from scratch

Having taken early retirement, I now enjoy the new challenge of promoting the importance and love of cooking in the wider community.

I am currently running 2 extremely popular after school clubs at a local private school, as well having run numerous in school sessions based around curriculum 'themes' such as different cultures and healthy eating.

I just love the name 'Cook Stars'. Cooking allows every child the opportunity to shine in their own unique way and I'm so excited to be running children's cooking classes. I instantly knew I needed to be involved in this business in order to create an abundance of 'stars' armed with essential life skills.

Learning to cook is such an important life skill but unfortunately over the years less and less time has been given to this subject in the school curriculum and many children have not been able to experience what they should have. Cooking has never been more important than it is now with increased obesity rates, diabetes and other food related disorders. I am so excited to be able to contribute to improving a person's health and well-being through cooking.

I am really looking forward to working with your school too!

Hi Annette, I just want to thank you for your wonderful cookery classes! They are outstanding; the girls are learning from your professional, fun instructions and gaining so much confidence and experience with all the delights they are making each week. All the dishes are unique and flavourful, the recipes from your classes will be some of our favourite "go to" dishes for years to come. Thank you so much for your hard work! The girls are super lucky to have you as their teacher!
