Welcome to the Class Blog of P4/5 and Mrs Burt 2025-2026
Garden Harvest 
Last year P4/5 and P2/3 planted lots of lovely seeds in the Community Garden. Mrs Burt and the current P4/5 and P4 classes have been down to harvest the veggies…
Everyone took a carrot home and over the next few weeks we will be making soup and carrot cake as well as doing something with the pumpkins!
Here is our 5 Ingredient Carrot Cake recipe 
400g SR flour, sieved 300g icing sugar, sieved 250g oil or melted butter 200g grated carrot 150ml water * OPTIONAL : 5 – 10g ground cinnamon icing sugar + water for topping or pre-made frosting
*Preheat oven to 180°C (fan). *Line or grease two 20cm round or 2lb loaf tins. *Combine ALL ingredients in a large bowl to form a smooth batter. *Pour the batter evenly into the tins. *Bake for about 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. *Let the cakes cool completely before adding icing or frosting of your choice.
Street Art v Graffiti
We have been learning about Street Art and Graffiti and the difference between the two.
Do you know what it is?
We have made our own ‘Tags’ and worked together to do a collaborative piece of work…
We also did some research on some famous street artists and each made a SWAY to include the facts we found.
Take a look…

We also had a STEM Challenge where we had to work in groups to design and build our own tunnels according to set criteria.
Take a look at our SWAY to see how we got on…
Most groups met the challenge!
