kestrels masterchef class!

Last term in DT, Kestrels enjoyed learning all about the differences between processed and wholefoods and today had a great time making either Ratatouille with orzo pasta or Lentil curry and rice. They showed fantastic skills; peeling, chopping and grating and worked together really well. The end results smelt and tasted delicious! 

SUPER Swifts are feeling FESTIVE!

 It is alsmost time for the winter break and Swifts are getting into the festive spirit!

They did amazingly well in the School Christmas Play, singing their hearts and showing off their dancing skills! Today we made our own Christmas hats ready for our school Christmas lunch!

We are so proud of how hard they have worked this half term! They have have all had such a wonderful attitude towards learing and this shows in the incredible work in their books!

Thank you parents and carers for all your support so far this year! Enjoy the winter break and we can't wait to see Swifts back in 2023!
