Baking and Cooking class
Arnav Kumar • October 11, 2018
Based on some research studies cooking programs positively influence children’s food-related preferences, attitudes, and behaviors. We at Sandesham believe that this is a unique way to teach how to improve the “important [culinary] life skills”. This is very important in increasing confidence and pride in cooking abilities and can also inspire some youths to “seriously consider post-secondary school education in this culinary field as a future academic goal”.
Ridhi Vasudeva, a 10th grade student of Pathways school, demonstrated how to make Marble cake and Bread Pizza.
Sandesham is an advocate for programs like these that are highly effective in improving perceptions of food as “healthier, more fresh”. This not only improves student engagement but also impacts their home environments by transferring good habits. A big thanks to Ridhi Vasudeva for taking this initiative.
