The Jamie's Ministry of Food 5 or 7 week course is about more than just cooking. Nancy's Daughter Danni never though school was important, all she wanted to do was cook, so Nancy struck a deal with Danni, if she participated in the course she had to go to school.
Learn to make delicious, nutritious, simple and affordable meals from scratch through hands on cooking. With an emphasis on fresh produce and nutrition, participants will learn lots of Jamie Oliver's hints, tips and shortcuts along with his incredible recipes.
Next week, 8 - 14 May, is National Volunteer Week - a celebration of the 6 million Australian volunteers and the outstanding contribution they make to our community.
