The Greek Community Schools successfully completed their Greek Cooking Classes for Adult Students last Thursday.
Held at the Greek Centre on Lonsdale Street in Melbourne, participants learned how to prepare traditional Greek dishes such as spanakopita, galaktoboureko and moussaka.
The adult students had the opportunity to improve their culinary skills while gaining a deeper appreciation for Greek gastronomy and its cultural significance.
They experienced the essence of a typical Greek meal, who many say is rooted in love and the spirit of sharing.
Anthi Tzani, teacher and coordinator of the Modern Greek for Adults program, highlighted the importance of these classes.
“This experience not only connects our students to one another but also strengthens their bond with Greek culture and tradition, enhancing their enthusiasm and love for learning the Greek language,” she said in a media release.
These cooking classes are part of Greek Community of Melbourne (GCM) Schools’ holistic and experiential teaching approach, as they hope to integrate language learning with culture and tradition.
