P4-7 got creative to find ways to support the community Christmas fair.\u00a0 They decided to make sweets to sell.\u00a0 The class made peppermint creams by following a simple recipe.\u00a0 We initially weighed quantities, but after experience we were able to use ‘ready reckoning’.<\/p>\n

We applied strict hygiene standards throughout the task, wearing hair nets and aprons and making sure we had squeaky clean hands.<\/p>\n

The group were able to calculate the amount we had to sell each pack of sweet for to make a profit.\u00a0 We added up the total cost of the ingredients and divided that number by the quantity of sweets we were able to make.\u00a0 This was then multiplied by how many sweets would be in a pack.\u00a0 We now know how much we must sell each gift pack of sweets for to generate a profit sale.<\/p>\n

The boys and girls used paper craft to create decorated presentation gift boxes.\u00a0 They will make a lovely present for someone at the Christmas Fair.\u00a0 We hope you would like to buy them.<\/p>\n
