Jackie's Philosophy

culinary-arts.jpg

Jackie Cameron believes there is more to food than working in a top restaurant - locally or internationally. “I’m enjoying sharing all that I have been fortunate to have learnt – and experienced - with the students,” she says, adding that her aim is to impart this knowledge, and to equip the students with the skills to 'go it alone'with confidence. She is ahead of the game on all levels as she guides students to create a balanced and healthy lifestyle in this crazy, but extremely rewarding, industry.

“My undertaking is to prepare students for the culinary arts,” she explained. “The correct attitude together with confidence, not arrogance, is hugely important to me. I want to see the school’s students staying in the industry, remembering there are many facets to the world of food. Leading by example, striving to be better every day, wanting to impress and being competitive is what gets one ahead.”

A Cut Above
The Rest.


A high standard is demanded for this NATIONALLY & internationally-recognised, mentoring course that produces respected chefs - a cut above the rest.
