Come Dine with Me

Come Dine with Me

This week we are celebrating Design and Technology week (Come Dine with Me) throughout the school. The children have the task of ‘Creating a healthy meal / dish for under £5.00.’ The children have been put into small groups within their year group to plan, make and evaluate their meal / dish. In Year 2, the children decided on a theme, ‘Omelettes.’ The children had to research Omelettes and decided in their groups on 5 ingredients to put into their dish. The children chose the following ingredients: spinach, cheddar cheese, mozzarella, cucumber, peppers, tomato, sweetcorn, tuna, chicken, sausage, ham and red onions. The children had to prepare their dishes in their small groups using key skills: 1. Learn how to prepare a simple dish safely and hygienically. 2. Know that everyone should eat 5 portions of fruit and vegetables every day (these are to be included in their Omelettes) and 3. Use key skills such as cutting, peeling and grating. Well done everyone, they looked and smelt delicious!
