Tech

This term for tech our class is doing wood work and cooking. So far in cooking we have made fruit kebabs, fruit smoothies and banana delight. In wood works we have made chopping boards,wooden spoons and pen and pencil holders.We love cooking because we get to eat everything and because we learn lots of techniques for knives, handling fruit and much more.We also love wood work because you get to make stuff and bring it home to share it with your family. Our tech days are tusday and thursday.

Homework due Week 2 (Fri 23rd October)

• We have our people savers course this Wednesday so we will not be learning spelling words this week.  All pupils will have new words ready to be alearnt for NEXT Wednesday.
• I need to see all waterproof jackets by this Friday please as I need to ensure that all pupils have one ready for camp.  
• one packet biscuits and one tin of fruit due into school by Friday NEXT WEEK.  I will obviously take these if they come in before that date.
• A reminder that next Monday and Tuesday our school is closed for both the long weekend and a teacher only day.  When we are on class camp, we will be tenting on one of the nights - boys will go out one evening, followed by girls on the next evening.  For this to happen, we need tents and roll mats.  Ideally, 3-4 man tents would be great, however, if we need to take the larger tents we will.  These need to be nylon tents though, not canvas.  We also require roll mats.  If you are able to provide either of these, could you please send them to school on Wednesday next week (or earlier). I would like the class to pitch them and also make sure that they are adequate for sleeping in :)
• A reminder also that camp needs to be paid for in full by the end of Week 3
