Today as part of Agora Ambition Day we designed and began to make our own cross stitch bookmarks. We had to think carefully about blocking colours to create shapes as well as put our sewing skills to the test. The activity really helped us to work on our perseverance and resilience as well as learning a new skill of how to create cross stitches. We will update you with our finished products soon!
This week it was the turn of the children making the main course to cook and the hero ingredient was salmon. The children were ambitious with their recipes which included: firecracker salmon, sweet chilli salmon, salmon with egg-fried rice and salmon pasta with creme fraiche and peas. Miss O’Shea was very impressed with the children’s preparation, cutting and presentation skills. Well done! Next week… desserts!
This afternoon, the children who had planned the starter for their group’s three course meal prepared and made their starters with pepper as the hero ingredient. The children improved their teamwork, cutting, chopping and measuring skills as well as learning how to use the oven and hob. They thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience, especially their delicious starters which they couldn’t wait to try!
