What a wonderful Winter harvest!

This wonderful Winter harvest from our school garden was put to great use in the Kitchen at the end of Term 2.

We made delicious Pumpkin Gnocchi, Potato and Rosemary Pizza, Broccoli and Herb Frittata, Roast Beetroot, Spinach and Fetta Salad and as an end of term treat, Chocolate Chip Cookies.

These recipes provided a great opportunity to incorporate Maths into our Kitchen lesson as students had to use their maths skills to calculate how to divide their Pizza & Frittata evenly amongst the number of students in their class, as you can see below.

 

As always, all recipes are available to download on the ‘Recipes’ link above.

Cooking for the Lighthouse Foundation.

 

Towards the end of Term 2, the Year 4 & 5 students did a wonderful job of cooking warm winter meals and treats for the Lighthouse Foundation. The students made trays of Cheesy Broccoli Pasta Bake, Vegetable Slice, batches of hearty Minestrone soup, Pumpkin and Spinach Pinwheels and Apple and Cinnamon muffins. All the dishes incorporated fresh, seasonal vegetables grown and harvested by the students from our school garden. The students also assisted in packaging the food before it was delivered. The volunteers at Lighthouse were extremely impressed by the quality of the nutritious meals prepared our Year 4 & 5 students and were most appreciative of their very kind donation.
