With the theme ‘Going for Gold’, aspiring young cooks are asked to create a winning two-course meal – main meal and pudding – for a favourite sports person.

Entrants, aged from 10 to 14 on Friday 31 August 2012, are encouraged to let their imaginations run wild. Points will be awarded for technical skill, originality, creativity and presentation.

Six lucky finalists will be invited to recreate their winning dishes in a thrilling, gold medal cook-off in May.

The winner and his or her family will be invited to stay for a week in a cottage on Treen Farm, a working organic dairy farm in St. Levan, Cornwall, plus the winner's school will win £100 worth of book vouchers.
