Castles

Pupils in 7D have finished their last History topic of the year by making these fabulous castles. They are all excited to bring them home  – we hope you enjoy them!

Pasta salad

This afternoon we made pasta salad. We are all becoming much more confident when chopping vegetables, and are enjoying learning how to prepare different vegetables.

Making a healthy salad

This afternoon pupils in 7D have designed and made a delicious salad. Everyone chose the ingredients they wanted to use, then helped to prepare the vegetables before assembling their salads.

Fruit Smoothies

This afternoon we have completed our work on fruit by making fruit smoothies. We hope they arrive safely home without spilling! Next week we will begin looking at ways to prepare different vegetables, and will start by making a salad.

Fruit kebabs

This afternoon we made fruit kebabs in Food Technology. All pupils were again extremely sensible when working with sharps knives, and we think these kebabs look amazing! Well done, 7D – you always try so hard.

Table cricket

It was a little chilly this afternoon, so we stayed inside to play table cricket for a change. It was good to remember the rules, and to practice our skills, but hopefully next week the sun will be shining and we can play Kwik Cricket outside again.

Lotus Flowers

As part of our topic on Buddhism, pupils in 7D have been learning about the significance of the lotus flower. These beautiful flowers grow from the muddiest water, and are an important symbol for Buddhist people. We tried our hand at origami to make these fantastic paper lotus flowers, and think they look great!

Fruit Salad

This term in 7D our Technology focus is Food Tech once again. This time we are investigating different ways of preparing fruit and vegetables. We started out by making a simple fruit salad, and everyone was extremely sensible when using sharp knives. We hope you enjoy it!

Sewing machine skills

This afternoon pupils in 7D had the opportunity to experiment with some different speeds and styles of stitching using a sewing machine, as well as using the foot pedal. With a little practice everyone became more confident when using the sewing machine, and were very proud of the work they produced. Well done, 7D!

Cells

This afternoon the fabulous 7D have enjoyed making cells using sweets! We used strawberry laces to represent the cell membrane, a strawberry mushroom to be the nucleus, jelly tots as mitochondrion and rainbow drops as the ribosomes. We topped it off with some jelly to represent the cytoplasm. We had great fun!
