YOUNGSTERS at a Fernhill Heath school enjoyed a cooking workshop with a former MasterChef contestant to learn about healthy eating.
Hindlip School students made pizzas using the new outdoor pizza oven at Fernhill House as part of the care home’s wider community focus to encourage the public to take part in events.
The youngsters learnt about nutrition and food groups, rolled out pizza dough and prepared vegetables with former MasterChef contestant chef Chris Williams who then fired the finished products.
Before working at Fernhill House, Chris, who is evangelical about organic food and uses vegetables grown in the home’s own kitchen garden, used to run an organic café staffed by people with autism and learning difficulties and supervised a Big Lottery funded community growing and cooking project.
