Garden to Table 2018

On Friday we had our first session of Garden to Table for 2018. The children were put into their groups and had an orientation of both the kitchen and the garden.

Chromebook Rollout

On Tuesday we had a special assembly where the whole school attended and watched as the Year 4 students were given their chromebook box. The school counted down and then there were shouts and screams as the students opened their Chromebooks. The look on the students eyes was excitement, fun and enjoyment.

Welcome to Team Awa

Welcome to Team Awa's Blog. This blog is to show the learning that the Year 3 and 4 students will be doing this year. Each week two students will choose a piece of work that they have done to share on our class blog.

Today we wanted to show Team Awa and the teachers who will be working in this classroom.
We have two teachers Mrs Clarke and Mrs Ritchie, and a teacher aide called Bev.

This year will be packed with learning new things, working together, building resilience and always using out school values both at school and at home.

Garden To Table Week 1 and 2

We have had 2 great weeks on the Garden to Table programme. Belinda and Amy our parent experts have been amazing and the children are absolutely loving it. Week 1 we made hummus, guacamole and herb scones which were served with bread and fresh veges. The children weeded the garden and planted some veges.

This week in the kitchen they made carrot muffins, beetroot dip, pumpkin dip and flatbread. Served of course with fresh veges. Some of the children are trying food they have never eaten before and are enjoying it. Nothing but positive comments and happy children.

Thank you so much to our amazing volunteers and teacher aides, without you we would not be able to do this programme!

Here are some photos from the last 2 weeks.
