I have really enjoyed working on our fun Easter activity especially sewing our own Easter eggs from scratch. Dillon
I had lots of fun making my Easter egg it was tricky, my favourite thing was the colouring in of the detailed Easter egg patterns. From Monique
We were learning design and technology skills and worked really hard to create, design and sew our own felt Easter eggs. Well done primary 7 some of them turned out beautiful. Miss Farrell
Today in p7 we had a parent’s open day. Our task was to build an earthquake proof building using marshmallows, straws and toothpicks. In addition the criteria stated that our buildings should be at least 25cm tall and have two stories. Once we had finished our buildings we tested them out by putting them on a tray of jelly and shaking the tray. If the building did not collapse then we would have a second test by putting a weight on it if it didn’t collapse with a weight on it we would put another weight on! During our task we had a false earthquake alarm and we all got under the tables and pulled our chair in, all the parents began to laugh (which you really shouldn’t do if there is a real earthquake.) We had a good result, none of buildings fell down!!!!

Last week in primary 7 we were making crepes with Nutella and banana.We made them from scratch with flour, milk and an egg. We mixed them all together and poured the batter into the pan and waited for it to cook. We even attempted to flip the pancakes!
After they were cooked we spread on our Nutella. Then we put our banana at the end of our pancake and carefully rolled it up. Next we cut it into bite size pieces and finally we got to eat them. They were very tasty.
The reason we were cooking this particular recipe was because it has recently been Pancake Tuesday and also because Fairtrade fortnight is focusing on breakfast food. In addition bananas and chocolate are typically associated as Fairtrade produces.
When we were not cooking were writing poems about the things we love and drawing portraits of our self to go with them. (written by Leah and Alexis)
