Wartime cookery!
Mrs Wither and Primary 5-7 enjoyed an afternoon of World War 2 cookery. The pupils were learning about rations, and how food was limited. As part of this learning they went on to bake a chocolate sponge – with no eggs, as well as making a carrot curry!

The children worked together in the classroom and enjoyed tasting the finished dishes. Pupils even took home a copy of the recipe to ask their parents to make more at home. And, having tasted both the cake and curry I was very impressed with the improvisation and use of limited resources – both were very tasty!
