We Feel Like Chicken Tonight
Transition boys were Effective Contributors and Confident Individuals when they helped prepare and cook their very own chicken wraps which was shared as a group meal. The boys all took part in chopping, grating and bread crumbing then helped set the table. It was Finger Lickin’ Good!!
To finish a lovely week, the Transition boys took part in ‘The World’s Biggest Coffee Morning’ on behalf on McMillan Cancer Support. The boys were Responsible Citizens helping to raise money for such a good cause. The Transition boys enjoyed eating the muffins they had made on Thursday and, rumour has it, there was even some dancing to be enjoyed. Great fun all round!

Muffin Magic!
The Transition boys were Confident Individuals this week when they made muffins for the Macmillan Cancer Support ‘World’s Biggest Coffee Morning’. The boys carefully measured out the dry mixture, the water and milk and cracked two eggs into the bowl before mixing well. The muffin mix was carefully spooned into paper cases and baked in a hot oven. The boys reported that they tasted very nice!

Shut the Box
The Transition boys were Effective Contributors when they played ‘Shut the Box’ this week (Mr Nicoll’s favourite game!). They had to make their own dice from a template and add the correct number of dots. The boys then worked in pairs to try and roll combinations of numbers which corresponded to the numbers from two to twelve. The first team to complete this, shut the box.

Master chefs in the making!
The transition boys were all Effective Contributors in cooking today. We ppicked Courgettes that had been grown in the school garden and used them to make a lovely pasta dish. The boys had also decided they would like to make nachos to go with this. Unfortunately we didn’t manage to get a final photo of the dish we made as it was gone within seconds.
Every morning in the Transition Class, we all watch Newsround to keep ourselves up to date with what’s happening around the world. The boys were Confident Individuals when picking a piece of news and creating a newspaper article about it. Topics included Frank the Ape’s 10th Birthday, the new Johnny English film and a new space-craft that will be going to space once its designed and built.
