Pitta Pizza

This week in our ECA we made deliciously healthy pizzas! For the pizza base we used a small pitta bread, then we covered it in tomato puree. Next we added our vegetable toppings, which included; sweetcorn, peppers (red, green and yellow), cherry tomatoes, and sweet basil that we had grown in our school garden. Finally we covered our pizzas with mozzarella cheese. Take a look at us hard at work....





Thai basil that was grown and picked from our school garden.

Curtain Up Drama

We listened sensibly to Miss Beth and the practiced using expression for different characters. One of us was the mum and one of us was the dad. Without telling people, we had to present a short act pretending that we were having dinner and the other children had to guess who was mum and who was dad from the expression in our voices.
