Primary 4 go bananas!

As part of food technology, the boys and girls in Primary 4 have been developing their peeling, slicing and chopping skills using bananas, carrots and potatoes!

We looked at how to prepare food safely and hygienically as well as techniques for preparing food before it is used for a meal.

First, we had to wash our carrots and potatoes using a colander and running water:

The boys and girls learned how to use the ‘bridge’ technique to slice a banana in half:

They also used the ‘claw’ technique to slice and dice the bananas:

 

They had lots of fun using the peelers too to peel the carrots and potatoes:

Primary 4 love food technology!

Welcome to Mid Calder Nursery and Primary School blog.

 Our school vision creates a very positive ethos within our school; all members of our learning community ‘Believe’ in themselves and thus ‘Achieve’ the best they can which will ultimately enable them to ‘Succeed’ in all they do.

 

Our nursery vision is ‘Playing to Learn, Learning to play‘.

We aim to prepare all our young people for the challenges of the future. Our learning environment aims to stimulate, challenge, support and provide opportunities to develop life skills.

We take positive steps to promote effective partnerships between home, school and the wider community. We have an open door policy and you will, as parents, be made most welcome at all times. We hope you enjoy looking at ‘life’ within our school and nursery and we would welcome comments under any blog posting.
