About Colette
Hey there, I’m Colette! I am a Registered nutritional therapist & Home Economics teacher. Since 2008 I have been teaching children & teens how to cook, and have fun in the kitchen – in my classroom & my own cookery workshops! However, a few years ago, I took a break from my cookery workshops to return to the classroom (this time as the student), to study and train as a nutritional therapist, and so, after all these years I am finally back...Bigger! Better! and through a whole new medium!
​
Years of classroom experience & clinical practice has shown me the importance & need for bringing these workshops back! Culinary skills are one of the most valuable life skills anyone could ever learn. It’s a known fact that learning how to cook from a young age (or later on for that matter) encourages smart, healthier food choices throughout life. It allows us to develop an understanding of foods & flavours, whilst also gaining an insight into the nutritional benefits of so many foods too. It’s an invaluable skill – one that allows us to take charge of, and prioritise our health! Not only that, but cooking brings us closer to others – it allows us to share & experience together, sharing food has always been a social event & something that allows us to create so many wonderful memories together.
​
The idea of having only a few ingredients & being able to create something wonderful for others to enjoy is something that will never depreciate for me. Whether it be a big pot of hearty stew, or a freshly baked batch of scones, the joy, the happiness & that ‘mmm’ sound you hear from family or friends will never tire. I have always had a love for cooking & baking (I’m definitely more of a baker though) & a firm believer that life is all about balance! So, now its my turn to share some of that with you & hopefully help you experience the same joy & passion whilst in the kitchen.
