Cooking Day / Today we will be cooking our very own Moroccan CousCous! Each child will have the opportunity to make their own meal which they can enjoy.
Provided by Get Kids Cooking, their vision is to empower primary school students with the cooking skills and healthy food literacy to make nutritious food choices, and grow up and feed themselves. This would help the wider community realise savings to public health, as well as the improved quality of life, as these children grow up and become adults.
Get Kids Cooking is working towards building capability through nutritious cooking education programs that will develop collective capacity for the school community to create a healthy future for the students.

Their cultural officers introduce various aspects of the Aboriginal culture, history, heritage, traditions and protocols.
Today’s Workshop includes an introduction to Aboriginal Australia, our instruments, weapons and tools through cultural talks, Dreamtime storytelling, boomerang throwing, bush resource walks, didgeridoo talks and traditional art.

Throughout the session students will learn about how to use a compass, basic principles of direction and orientation, augmented reality and working together as a team. It’s Great fun!
