Mini Vinnies’ Upcycling Event

By

The Mini Vinnies enjoyed an Upcycling Bunting event on Tuesday when they were visited by Laura from the Waste & Recycling Education Centre.  This year is the 10th anniversary of the Visitor Education Centre opening and 10 years since household waste has been recycled and not sent to landfill.

The children learnt about the work of the Waste & Recycling Centre and got to reuse some material themselves when Laura brought in squares of fabric to decorate with other scrap fabric pieces to make some beautiful, coloured bunting.  This will be displayed at the anniversary event in June.

Here they are making their creations:

Year 1 Smoothie Making

Year 1 have been showing off their culinary skills by concocting a ‘Very Berry’ Smoothie. The children eagerly measured and cut berries, adding a splash of yogurt and milk. These budding chefs, not only learnt about healthy eating, but also developed motor skills and teamwork.

Year 6 DT – Vegetable Curry

By

As part of our DT unit, we have looked at and evaluated the packaging of different curry sauces.

We looked through the common ingredient lists of curry sauces and identified ingredients that can cause allergies.

The children then voted which ingredients they wanted to include in their own vegetable curry.

They chose: onions, peppers, potatoes,  cauliflower, garlic and tomatoes.

The children then peeled, chopped and diced the ingredients and mixed together with the dry spices and other ingredients and we slow cooked the curry.

In the afternoon, the children tasted their curry (along with some poppadoms) and evaluated their curry.

“10 out of 10” said a few children. “I wish there was some left so I could take it home!”

Safe to say, it was a huge success!
