At the end of each session, you’ll be able to take home the food you’ve created, and maybe even share some of it with your family.

Cost is £80 per child. Uniform and all ingredients are included in the price. Please note that the Junior Baker course takes up to 12 students so it will be based on a first come first served basis. Participants will be given a college certificate on completion of the course and receive feedback from the tutor.
