Hackney School of Food

Rowan Class were given an amazing opportunity to attend a free two hour cooking lesson at the Hackney School of Food. The reason for this are as follows:

- The cooking lessons are planned to directly support the progression of the children's DT knowledge and meet Berger’s DT curriculum. Lessons are linked with other areas of the curriculum and cultural events, such as History, Diwali or Spanish, providing a cross-curricular approach to cooking and nutrition.

- As part of Hackney Council's effort to eradicate food poverty in the borough, the Mayor is supporting these free lessons. Children will learn where food is grown and how to cook seasonal dishes from highly skilled food educators, in our purpose-built teaching kitchen and garden.
