Cooking Classes by Ashburton Pool and Recreation Centre

The Cooking Classes series at Craig Family Centre offers hands-on community cooking sessions every second Thursday from April 30 to June 25, 2026, running from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. Participants learn practical skills to prepare budget-friendly meals and treats, shaped by group interests, followed by shared meals over tea or coffee. Held fortnightly at the historic Craig Family Centre in Ashburton, these free classes with membership foster community connections in a welcoming space. The centre, a community hub for over 60 years with a legacy as a children's centre, emphasizes social interaction and skill-building for all ages.
