This term Room 17 have been enjoying a weekly cooking program. The recipes range from sweet to savoury, breakfast to dinner, to everything in between. The benefits of this have been huge. It has been an engaging way to go over various measurement skills, writing reading and even some science thrown in. As well as these it is teaching us basic life skills (what Conductive Education is all about). For those of us with sensory needs we are being challenged to try new textures, colours and smells. This program allows us to have fun with food, enjoy new tastes and develop an appreciation for cooking. I would like to extend a HUGE thank you to Countdown for donating a $500 voucher so that we will be able to carry on with this next year. We are extremely grateful and are looking forward to trying many more recipes next year.
