Paarl, November 2012: It's that time of the year again ... school holidays. Keeping children amused for six weeks or more can be a challenging task for any parent.
An activity that will surely keep your child entertained is the newly launched Junior Cheese Masters at Fairview Wine and Cheese in the Paarl Winelands. Junior Cheese Masters is a fun and educational experience that will teach children how cheese is made, while filling up those little bellies too. 

Each session will guide your child through the cheese-making process, from seeing how a goat is milked and tasting the fresh milk, to adding the rennet and cutting the curd. The creative corner will supply endless entertainment, including decorating their own cheese container with paint and glitter. The course also includes a baking area where children will be given the opportunity to roll out their own Pita bread dough and have it baked to enjoy with their cheese. To make a booking, simply email tasting@fairview.co.za or visit the farm. Each session lasts 1 hour and payment can be made at the Fairview Tasting Room. 

While the kids are occupied why not enjoy an award-winning Master Tasting or indulge in an artisanal cheeses and wine tasting. 

Junior Cheese Masters will start on the 1st December 2012 at 10:30 and 12:30 and every Saturday and Sunday thereafter. During the school holiday's Junior Cheese Masters will run sessions every day, excluding Christmas and New Year's Day, starting from the 15 Dec 2012 – 19 January 2013. Please book to avoid disappointment. 

Cost: R50 per child (age 3 – 14 years old) 
Session times: 10:30 and 12:30 
Special rates apply to group bookings.

About The Fairview Wine and Cheese 

With its iconic goat tower and residents ready to welcome guests 363 days a year, Fairview Wine and Cheese in Paarl is one of the most frequently visited tourist destinations in the Western Cape and offers something for the whole family. For as little as R25 you can taste the daily selection of artisanal cheeses, plus six wines of your choice – and with dedicated hosts at each tasting 'pod', you can be sure of friendly and professional service to guide you through their wide range of quality wines. If you have more time, try a leisurely, tutored tasting in the Beryl Back tasting room which includes 8 wines, a selection of cheeses and olive oils. Want to take some goodies home? Simply pop in at the lively deli, where you can pick up a variety of innovative cheeses, freshly baked breads and other delicacies – all at very reasonable prices. If you can entice your kids away from the playful goats, why not end your visit to Fairview with a delectable Mediterranean-style lunch at the Goatshed Restaurant? Preferably al fresco to enjoy the views over Paarl valley and, of course, the goat tower. A trip to the Cape Winelands would simply not be complete without visiting the vibrant and ever-popular Fairview Wine and Cheese.
