"The program gives the kids enthusiasm for food and cooking that is wonderful and has really given them a concept about healthy choices. They are exposed to different ingredients and recipes. It is hands on - my son has been chopping fruits and veggies ever since with pride."

- Parent

"I enjoyed the cutting fruit or veggies part and I enjoyed eating together with the group part."

- Student

 

"All the food you taught us to make is so good but my favourite was the friendship fruit salad. After you said that breakfast is important, I started to eat breakfast every day."

- Student

Project CHEF is a lived curriculum. The students absorb so much from seeing, doing and tasting. It would be wonderful if every child could experence this program!
