MasterChef Australia

Junior MasterChef Australia is an Australian competitive cooking game show. It is a spin-off of MasterChef Australia, itself an adaptation of the British show MasterChef, and features contestants aged 8 to 12. The first season of the show began production in July 2010 and included 50 contestants. Over 5,000 children from around the nation auditioned for the series.

Gary Mehigan and George Calombaris returned alongside Anna Gare, while Matt Moran replaced Matt Preston as a judge.[1] Callum Hann has also been involved in the series.[2]

In contrast to prior series, Junior MasterChef Australia is produced by Shine Australia.[3] The promo was seen during the final episode of MasterChef Australia (Season 2). The series premiered on Sunday, 12 September 2010.[4]

Changes

In the Junior series, contestants are not eliminated every week, though four are eliminated at a time once the top 12 is decided. Every eliminated contestant receives a range of prizes.[5]

Seasons

Season 1

Production of a junior version of the show was initially suggested in October 2009. The first series of the show, featuring 8 to 12 year old contestants, was filmed after the second series of MasterChef Australia and began airing 12 September 2010 on Ten. In contrast to prior series, Junior MasterChef Australia was produced by Shine Australia.[6] 12-year-old Isabella Bliss won the contest to become Australia's first Junior Masterchef.

Season 2

Junior MasterChef was officially renewed on 15 November 2010 due to strong ratings, to return for a second season in 2011. Filming started on 28 July 2011, with the season premiering in October 2011. 11-year-old Greta Yaxley from Western Australia won the Junior MasterChef title for 2011.[7]
