Scones were the order of the week in the Transition class. The pupils were all Confident Individuals when following the recipe and using kitchen equipment. There were some fantastic fine motor skills on display, rubbing the butter into the flour. Some light tasty scones were the result of an afternoon of hard work.
It was the turn of the second half of the class to cook their neeps this week! Some great skills shown by Confident Individuals. They worked with hot water and hot equipment. They used kitchen utensils safely and tidied up well at the end of their session. Well done!
Following on from their neep preparation last week some of the Transition class used their neeps in their cookery class this week. They were Confident Individuals dealing with hot water and pans to boil their neeps before mashing them. They had to have a wee bit of haggis just to help the neeps go down! They confidently used the microwave, kettle and stove top along with different preparation implements.

As part of their SQA healthy cooking and Burns work, the Transition class were Confident Individuals preparing neeps this week. They all peeled and chopped very safely, following instructions very well. however, I don’t think the taste of raw neep was universally liked!
It was Potato Salad Take 2 this week, as the second group had their opportunity to cook. Skills on show were, research before cooking, microwaving, cutting and mixing as they made potato salad with low-fat, free from mayonnaise. A tasty treat was the payoff for such hard work.
Some of the Transition class had their cookery time this week. They were Successful Learners when they chose a healthy way to prepare potatoes. They chose to make low fat potato salad. Skills on show were using the microwave, chopping spring onions and mixing ingredients together. As usual Mr Nicoll didn’t even get a tiny wee bit to taste. Good skills everyone.
Some of the Transition class had their turn to cook bacon and eggs in a healthy way this week. They were all Confident Individuals safely using a hot grill, whisking, making toast and spreading butter. They chose grilling bacon and microwaving scrambled eggs as their healthy preparation choices.
