Following the enthusiastic response to the first Children’s Nutrition and Cooking Workshop, ALPHAMEGA Supermarkets, as part of the Corporate Social Responsibility program “Children, Nutrition & Health,” are back with a new event, inviting even more children, ages 8 to 14, to participate in a unique hands-on workshop. Through an experience filled with learning, creativity, and fun, the children will have the opportunity to learn the principles of a balanced diet and discover the joy of cooking.
The workshop will take place on Tuesday, September 8, 2026, at Intercollege (the main campus of the University of Nicosia), with two groups of participants:
ΣΧΕΤΙΚΑ ΑΡΘΡΑ
Group A: 9:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. (Children from Nicosia and Larnaca)
Group B: 1:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. (Children from Limassol, Paphos, and Paralimni)
Guided in the kitchen by Chef and Brand Ambassador for ALFAMEGA Supermarkets, Christina Christofi, the young participants will put on their aprons, transform into little chefs, and prepare healthy and creative recipes, discovering that healthy eating can be delicious, enjoyable, and creative all at once.
Before the cooking session, members of the Cyprus Association of Dietitians and Nutritionists will present, through interactive activities and games, the basic principles of a balanced diet, helping children learn about the nutritional value of foods and adopt healthy eating habits from an early age.
Next, the children will get hands-on in the kitchen, where, under the guidance of Chef Christina Christofi and her team, they will create their own healthy recipes step by step. Through hands-on participation, they’ll learn basic cooking techniques, learn to work together, and discover the joy of creation.
The workshop is designed as a comprehensive educational experience that combines learning with fun, encouraging children to make creative use of their free time, away from screens, while fostering their love for healthy eating and cooking.
Upon completion of the workshop, all young chefs will receive a commemorative certificate of participation and gifts from ALFAMEGA Supermarkets.
The Children’s Nutrition and Cooking Workshop is organized in collaboration with the Cyprus Association of Dietitians and Nutritionists and with the support of Intercollege’s Culinary Arts Programs.
Participation in the workshop is free.
Parents can register their children by September 2, 2026, by 12:00 p.m., by filling out the online registration form available on the website:
Due to the hands-on nature of the workshop and to ensure the active participation of all children, the number of available spots is limited. Each group will accommodate up to 22 children.
In the event that the number of applications exceeds the number of available spots, participants will be selected via an electronic lottery, ensuring equal opportunities for all.
