Keri’s Kitchen

I would love my students  to go off into the world understanding how to nourish themselves with good fresh food. Learning to cook is a life skill, not a weekend activity Chop it, sizzle it, sauce it, devour it — that’s how we roll in our cooking classes! Each week we dive in hands first, whipping up full meals from scratch (yes, the kids are doing it all — veggies, meat, sauce, everything!) Recent deliciousness: beef tacos, juicy meatballs, turkey stir-fry, Thai chicken, and sweet & sour chicken. Come for the skills, stay for the feast.

Young Chef at Airfield Estate

Young Chef workshops at Airfield Estate in Dundrum give children aged 8 to 12 a hands-on cooking experience in the estate's Inspiration Kitchen, which looks out over its own food garden. Where possible, ingredients used in class are grown on site. Sunday sessions (10am-12.30pm) are led by experienced educators and cover both sweet and savoury dishes, giving young chefs a rounded set of practical cooking skills rather than a single recipe focus. Beyond the cooking itself, the workshops build a deeper connection to fresh, seasonal ingredients and where food actually comes from - a useful complement to any child's general food education, set against the backdrop of a working city farm estate.

No prior experience is needed — the aim is to build technique, confidence and independence in the kitchen regardless of starting level.
