food festival


On Thursday of week 8 we had the food festival.

To be a little different from other classes we made Nachoes. Everyone in our class got to push the whiz button on the food processot. Yay, loud noises!

In our Vegetarian Nachoes we put....

crushed garlic
crushed ginger
chilli
tumeric
cumin
coriander
celery
carrot
onion
red kidney beans
crushed tomatoes
pumpkin
frozen peas, corn and carrot
spinach

Wasn't it healthy!? Did you enjoy our nachoes?
Wow! look at how much fun the Brainy Butterflies had at the beach!

Here is an example of the amazing writing created when we go back (spelling and capitals corrected)...

Dear Mrs McWhinnie,
Thank you for reminding us about being safe so we could go past teachers and throwing sand. I like the tiki-tour with Pharelle and Alex.
From Jaydon

Dear Mr Reed,
Thank you for when everybody was turn already and you stopped them. 
Dear Mrs McWhinnie,
Thank you for letting us swim.
