Ruby Reward Table 06.03.2026
Well done to this week’s winners of the Ruby Reward Table for being excellent pupils in our dinner hall.
Discovery Dens – Pancake Making
The pupils in Marneil House enjoyed taking part in making pancakes together. They practiced important life skills by learning to read and follow a simple recipe, carefully measuring and mixing the ingredients. The pupils also demonstrated good hygiene by washing their hands before preparing the food and keeping their workspace clean. Throughout the activity, they were reminded about safety when cooking, such as being careful around hot surfaces and equipment. This hands-on experience helped develop their independence, teamwork, and confidence in the kitchen.
