General terms and conditions when attending Compadre Cooking School

All junior classes, when identified as such, are strictly for children aged 12 to 16. We reserve the right to refuse entry to a child if we feel they are too young to attend the class without risk of injury. For more information about children’s participation, please contact [email protected].
Start time: classes and activities start punctually as scheduled. To make the most of it, please arrive on time.
