Members of Savremena’s culinary club participated in the traditional Easter egg decoration workshop.

The students used tempera colours, threads, natural colours and herbs, decorative ribbons, etc. Prior to this, the students coloured the eggs in different colours.

In culinary club, one of the favourite clubs at Savremena, the students celebrated Easter in a special way. Together with teacher Branka Milićević, the little ones decorated Easter eggs using different techniques. Everyone was engaged and focused, determined to make the best egg decoration.

CULINARY CLUB INSPIRES IMAGINATION AND TEACHES STUDENTS ABOUT THE RIGHT USE OF INGREDIENTS

The students were motivated and did their best to make the best egg decoration. Although eager to taste the eggs and engage in the traditional egg fight, they learnt that they must save the eggs for Easter lunch, after which they can eat them and enjoy the wonderful Easter traditions.

In addition, the students learnt why boiled eggs are healthy, how nutritional they are, and for how long you can keep them outside the fridge. Teacher Branka Milićević talked about the historical context and symbolism of the holiday, and explained why we eat eggs for Easter in the first place.

Finally, their effort was praised. The students posed for photos and their Easter decorations were exhibited in the school hallway. They took their eggs home so they could enjoy them during Easter and the days following.

A HEALTHY ATTITUDE TOWARDS INGREDIENTS AND THE ENVIRONMENT IS THE ESSENCE OF COOKING

At school, the little foodies learn different life skills designed to help them become independent and ready to tackle the world around us. In culinary club, the kids learn not only about cooking, but also about different ingredients and the advantages of having a healthy diet.

A set of such skills tailored to their age group enables the little ones to have all the necessary information regarding the nutritional needs of their bodies. Most importantly, culinary club teaches them how to cook delicious and healthy meals.
