Each class is 3 hours long and consists of a nutrition talk (meal planning, reading and understanding food labels, stretching your budget, etc) Followed by a demonstration by your tutor and then you will cook the same recipe. We sit down to eat together and after cleaning up, depart for home.
This is also an opportunity to get to know more people and after the classes we may meet up in a local cafe. Please see details in the flyer.
Please note these classes are aimed at people who lack motivation to cook for themselves and need more confidence and skills in the kitchen. Sorry, it is NOT for people looking for more ideas for their cooking repetoire. The course includes fairly basic recipes from a 50 page recipe booklet that you will take home.

Nelson City Council group manager for community services Roger Ball said while the erosion at the beach had been occurring for decades, it was becoming more obvious as it got closer to human-built infrastructure.
How have you seen the back beach change over time - and how do you think it will change in the future?

Parents lobbying nationwide for the change to "structured literacy", which teaches reading and writing consecutively, say phonics books should replace the "Ready to Read" books most schools use to help children learn to read. Do you agree?

Adrian Faulkner's simple but ingenious jar-gripping device was born when he watched his wife struggle to open jars after breaking her wrist.
He's hoping his invention will help older people all over the country, while raising some funds for Menzshed.
