Every school holiday, we invite your little ones to roll up their sleeves and dive into the delicious world of pizza-making at our Bambino Workshops held at Alphonsus Pizza! Perfect for kids aged 4 to 12, these hands-on classes are designed to spark creativity, teach culinary skills, and provide a fun, engaging experience that they’ll cherish.
Led by the talented Champion Pizza Chef Jim Parker, our workshops give children the chance to learn the art of crafting authentic Neapolitan pizzas from scratch. Each session is packed with engaging activities, beginning with the creative task of decorating their own pizza boxes, which sets the tone for the hands-on fun to follow.
One of the highlights of the workshop is an exclusive tour of our Dough Room and Kitchen Garden. Here, the young chefs get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the heart of our pizza-making process, learning where the magic truly begins. This experience not only educates but also inspires them to understand the importance of quality ingredients and the craftsmanship that goes into making great pizza.
The excitement continues as the children roll up their sleeves and immerse themselves in dough-kneading, a fundamental skill in pizza-making. Under Chef Jim’s guidance, they learn how to prepare and stretch the dough, then choose their favourite toppings to create their own personalised pizzas.
No pizza-making adventure would be complete without mastering the iconic pizza toss, a fun and essential skill that brings smiles to their faces. After enjoying the fruits of their labor, each child is awarded a special certificate to commemorate their newfound skills and the unforgettable experience they’ve had.
We host these popular workshops every school holiday making them the perfect holiday activity or a special gift for your aspiring young chefs.
Spaces are limited, so be sure to book early and give your child a culinary experience they’ll never forget!
