MasterChef Australia Junior

From over 5,000 Applicants the top 50 Junior cooks gather for the first challenges of the Junior MasterChef Series.

Today the remaining 30 kids have their chance to cook their best dishes for a chance to make it through to the top 20.

The top 20 learn that they will be cooking in an invention test with two core ingredients.

The excited top 12 arrive at the MasterChef Kitchen for the first time.

In their first offsite challenge, the kids are divided into teams to take over a High School tuck shop for the day.

It's the first MasterClass of the series and while the top 12 have a well-deserved rest, 10 kids from our top 50 join us for the first Cook-along MasterClass in the MasterChef Kitchen.
