Fabulous Flipping Fiesta

This morning the cooking room turned into a fabulous flipping fiesta!! Year six students made fluffy banana choc-chip pancakes.  Our skill focus for the morning was learning to separate egg yolks from whites and beat our egg whites to the 'stiff peak' stage.  We also worked on mastering the art of flipping our pancakes.  Tentative flipping soon turned into confident flips, with great height and even a backwards double flip.
We rounded off our great morning by testing a few old eggs in a bowl of water.  Once we had discovered they were a little old, we smashed them in our compost heap.  The perfect fun ending to a wonderful cooking session.  Well done budding chefs.

Dress Up day

We celebrated the end of term by dressing up in clothes from past decades.  This tied nicely with our learning around 'Changing Times' from earlier in the term.  It was fun to look at the changes in fashion and specific clothing items from different decades.  We had cowboys, hippies, Fred Dagg, old school uniforms and brilliant fashion items from the 70's and 80's. A neat end to another busy term in Room 4!
