I smell baking ...

As part of our learning about Anzac day, we had a go at making Anzac biscuits.  They ranged in size and shape but we all agreed that they tasted delicious!!!

If you want to have a go at home then the recipe we used was:

1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup rolled oats, 3/4 cup of coconut (put into a bowl)

125g butter, 2 Tablespoons of golden syrup (heat on stovetop or in microwave)

1Table spoon of boiling water, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda (dissolve soda in water and then add to butter and golden syrup mixture

Add dry ingredients to wet and mix together

Roll into balls and place on baking tray

Bake for 20 minutes at 180 degrees.  Yummo!

The Learning Centre

There has been a lot of progress in the new learning centre over the holidays!  Today we were lucky enough to have a walk-through to see how it is looking.  Here we are:

There is something new in our classroom too.  Have you noticed what it is?

Mrs King's Holiday

As the optional extra for homework this week, you have been asked to share what you got up to on your Easter holiday.  I thought I would show you some photos of my trip to Te Papa in Wellington.  There was an amazing Meccano exhibition that I think all of you would have enjoyed seeing.  Do you like Meccano?
