Year 3 have been learning about Fairtrade and chocolate - where it comes from and how it is made in Geography. Nathan, from Original Beans, came into the to explain how chocolate was made - they opened up a cacao pod, tried the fruit, then the fermented and dried beans before tasting the different kinds of chocolate it eventually makes - white, milk and dark. They then put all this knowledge to the test by making chocolate mouse and aztec hot chocolate (with added chilli) in the community kitchen. #keepconnected #keepkind

Year 3 have made levers in their mechanisms unit in DT this week. They will use their pop up books to tell us the ‘Story of Chocolate’, using their pop ups in a non fiction text. Well done Year 3!

This half term we have learnt how to cook a range of pasta dishes in years 1-6. The children learnt about where the recipe originated, where the ingredients were grown and then set about learning how to peel, grate, chop and blend to make the pesto and add it to the pasta. The children used basil, garlic and Parmesan. Michael said the garlic was just to strong, Cheyenne said the blender was hard to use as it moved the ingredients around and Tate said when he mixed the garlicky, cheesy mix with the pasta he was surprised he liked it. Well done Year 3! #keephealthy

Year built Tudor houses in art and watched them burn, very quickly, as part of their learning in history about the Great Fire of London. Year 3 were respectful, safe and sensible throughout. Well done Year 2! #keepsafe
