Details

Each school implementing the Intensive Model (with Specialists running the kitchen and garden classes) should send two staff members to this training. It is designed specifically for the designated Kitchen Specialist and Garden Specialist staff members who will deliver your school's kitchen and garden classes.   

Please note: If your school is running the Flexible Model (all kitchen and garden classes are led by two of your school's teachers or a teacher and a Specialist), you will instead attend the Introductory and Advanced Program Delivery Training sessions.

This training will help Specialists develop and deepen their knowledge and understanding of the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Program philosophy and delivery. Both days concentrate on learning hands-on techniques, but also include sessions on practical skills development such as advanced planning and volunteer and budget management. This is the ideal training to take the Kitchen Garden Program to the next level of garden productivity and to develop inspired kitchen menus.

We look forward to working with you!
 

Additional Details

Please come prepared for hands-on sessions in the kitchen or garden, so closed shoes are a must, and you may be outside for parts of each day so should bring hats/sunscreen or coats as necessary. We also recommend you bring a camera, notebook and pen.

You will receive a copy of the Introductory or Advanced Kitchen Garden Program Syllabus at your sessions, as well as a folder containing useful handouts for supplementary information.

Please note: The Advanced Training has been scheduled to run at a different Adelaide metropolitan school; Littlehampton Primary.
