Cooking Club

Our Cooking Club enjoyed a hot and busy baking session after school on Tuesday, making delicious homemade pizzas. The warm weather was perfect for proving the dough, which rose beautifully and resulted in some fantastic pizzas. Everyone had great fun kneading, shaping, and decorating their creations before enjoying the finished results.

Next week, we will be baking biscuits and experimenting with a range of exciting flavours. All KS3 students are welcome to join us!
