Guacamole! Food Technology in Year 5!

As part of their South American topic, Mrs Hallam helped Year 5 to make Guacamole this week!  Using Avocados, red onions, lime juice, red chilli peppers and a hint of garlic, the children demonstrated their culinary skills of cutting, mashing and mixing to make this South American based dipl  They really enjoyed making it bloved eating it afterwards with Doritos!  Some of the children enjoyed it so much that they are planning to make more at home!  Well done everyone and a massive thank you to Mrs Hallam for helping them!Mrs Blomeley

Reading Ambassadors Celebration Event

Today our KS2 Reading Ambassadors went to Dukinfield Town Hall to take part in a celebration event with lots of other Tameside schools. It was lovely to see them up on the stage to receive their certificate to thank them for their hard work this year. I am super proud of them all.
