What a week  we`ve had of fantastic  food ,fun and of course Health and Wellbeing learning opportunities .The Scottish Government has put the Health and Wellbeing of Scotland as a top priority and St Elizabeth`s  has certainly made a very positive contribution. Sara from RHET(Royal Highland Educational Trust) spent the whole of Tuesday helping all the Senior children make soup and savoury scones. She even stayed after school to  show staff how to make mincemeat. Meanwhile  Linda and Gail from Warburtons talked to P3 and P4 about the history of bread and let the children make their own sandwich creation and gave each of them a loaf to create with  at home. On Wednesday P1/2 and P2/3 learned so much about Scottish Seafood from Sheila of Seafood Scotland .You should ask them about a John Dory and the new tastes they tried. Senior children were introduced to Jennifer from Quality Meat Scotland on Thursday with smells of Scottish Lamb wafting through the school. Popping in and out of classes on the same day was Glen from Park Dairy Farm in Auldhouse with a box of cow photos and milking udders!!And we are not finished yet. Tomorrow all our P1s will visit Carrigans for a special treat courtesy of Jack`s dad Richard. Then to round off this Festival of Food, everyone will go home with a Soup Sack containing a Scottish carrot,turnip,leek,potato ,stock cube and wooden spoon.Weekend homework….make some family soup and enjoy.If you have time, it would be great if you and your child  could share your Soupy Time with the school.A drawing,written recipe,reflection,a photograph and /or an e-mail to gw07emmettchristine@glow.sch.uk would be just great.Thanks to everyone involved and to Mr Maccera, a World Champion Pizza Maker, who has promised to make some healthy pizzas with some special children on Tuesday coming…see Twitter for more pictures and comments.
