Cook Book Business Venture

The Primary 5/6 enterprise team would like to encourage all budding cooks to upload or send in their recipes for the Kirkstyle Cookbook.

 The pupils had a successful day at the Fayre selling a variety of tasty soups and biscuits. Individual portions of; ready to eat Cream of Mushroom and frozen two people portions of pea and ham, lentil and leek & potato soup and the always popular Empire Biscuits prepared  with the help of some Primary 1 pupils.

"Please Sir can I have some more?"
Top hat and Easter bonnet?

The pupils have added these recipes to their cook book business venture and ask that you do the same. You can upload your own recipe using the template on the website OR send your recipe to school and the managers will type it up and submit it for you.

During the Spring Fayre the business team took a couple of orders but are still on the lookout for more recipes and hopefully plenty of orders.

Day 9

Better than a chocolate egg!

 

I'm so excited.

Gently, gently.
Day 9 was the first time that we let the chicks spread their wings and have a flap around. The made loads of noise and one of the local Councillors Hugh Ross came to find out what all the commotion was about. The pupils completed their diaries and thought about the similarities between them growing up and their chickens.

 Callum Hazel said “They have all grown like us, no longer babies or toddlers but kids at school.”

Alix McAteer said “it’s been a great experience because I’ve never been this close to animals. I hope to get a pet when I’m 10.”

A proud Dad!
The smile says it all.

The chicks returned to school on Monday and we were so happy to see them again.  We noticed that they had grown taller and were beginning to grow wing feathers. The are definitely much more active and chirpier now.

We love the chickens because they are gorgeous and beautiful. We love having the chickens in class because we can feed them and hold them. We love watching them too.

Today the children got the opportunity to hold the chicks and they learned how to handle them with care.  We made a chicken run in the middle of the room so the chickens had space to run around more and stretch their wings.
