Pizza From Scratch! (12-15 year olds)
Course Overview
There’s nothing better than pizza - except making your own from scratch! Make your own dough, sauce & bake it too
In this hands-on workshop, students will learn how to create everything from the dough to the sauce, then customise and bake their own delicious personal pizza.
From working with yeast to learning how to simmer a tomato-based sauce, this session covers a wide range of kitchen skills in a fun, relaxed environment.
Plus, they get to eat what they’ve made!

About the tutor
Yvette Henderson
Growing up in an Italian household, my family life was all about traditional cooking and making meals from scratch and being together.
My Mamma was an excellent cook and I paid very close attention. I am a keen home cook and regularly bake for fun as well as bake cakes to order.
In addition to teaching adult cooking classes at North Sydney Community Centre, I feel very strongly that children and teens learn the basic skills and knowledge to be able to make nourishing food as well as fun food for themselves and their families and gaining that important kitchen confidence to take them into adult life.
