This programme is designed specifically for high school aged students with an interest in coffee and a desire to learn new skills in a hands-on environment. Our School Holiday Barista Training is an extended version of our popular Essential Barista Course, created for students and beginners wanting extra time behind the machine and a deeper introduction to specialty coffee.

Over three days, participants will learn the foundations of espresso making, milk texturing, grinder adjustment, workflow, café-style drink preparation, and coffee theory. We’ve also added an introduction to filter brewing methods so students can explore different styles of specialty coffee preparation.

The course also includes extra guided practice time, a group latte art session, and a behind-the-scenes roastery tour to give students a broader understanding of the coffee industry.
