Cooking training programme held for children, ‘Little Chefs Cooking Class’ has been successfully concluded today. 

The programme held over the weekend, gathered 15 participants in the age range of 10-13 years, where they created an array of delicious dishes in the kitchen under the guidance of talented chefs from Chefs Guild of Maldives (CGM).  

The program helped equip them with the skills and knowledge to put together a meal on their own. Cooking is not just about developing basics of preparing a meal. It is also learning about nutrition, food safety as well as developing on math, science, literacy, motor skills and teamwork.    

The program put emphasis on instilling these concepts in the young chefs, while building their confidence in cooking and making it a fun interactive experience in a friendly and safe environment. The program was also planned to motivate and attract kids to have some excitement and fun with the guardian/mother/father in the kitchen during the coming month Ramadan.    

Participation certificates were presented to all the Little Chefs who took part in the program.
