Our teen program was designed to take young chefs to the next level, helping them expand their culinary skills while building confidence in the kitchen. In today’s fast-paced world, teenagers often lack essential food knowledge, rely on convenience foods, and have limited exposure to diverse culinary experiences. This program goes beyond basic cooking skills, providing teens with a deeper understanding of food, nutrition, and kitchen techniques. It encourages creativity and experimentation with new flavors and textures, transforming the kitchen into a space for culinary discovery and adventure.
Wooden Spoon Kids nurtures a passion for cooking by focussing on:
Advanced cooking techniques, such as
- knife skills, pastry work, and plating.
- Mastery of various cuisines and ingredients,
- broadening their food knowledg
- Nutrition education to help teens make healthier choice
- Developing independence and responsibility in the kitchen.
- Safety procedures, including working with heat and handling kitchen equipment.
- Following and adapting recipes with confidence.
- Experimenting with creating and designing their own unique dishes
Through this fun, hands-on learning process, Wooden Spoon Kids aims to inspire the next generation of home chefs, equipping them with life skills that will benefit them for years to come.

“My children have attended a number of Ankie’s cooking classes, each time they have come away empowered with new skills and more confident cooks. Preparing their own meals made them more curious about flavours and bolder to try new dishes. Many of the recipes live on in our household as firm favourites and my children take pride and joy in helping to prepare food for us all to enjoy.”
