Fruit Kebabs

Today, Year 1 made fruit kebabs. The children had to chop, peel and arrange fruit into a tasty and pleasing presentation. The children reasearched a variety of different fruits before designing their kebab. They had to think about the look, feel and taste. They learnt how to use everyday tools safely and how to present their product. The children got to eat their kebabs and evaluate them with their peers. Great job everyone!

Reading Ambassadors Display

Tameside Libraries set our Reading Ambassadors a task to create a genre display of books to persuade children to read a certain text type. They chose a fantasy theme which is books about magic, legendary creatures and faraway lands. The children put the display together themselves in the KS2 library and I think this will definitely encourage children to read these books.

Well done Ambassadors!
