The activity that we do are Cooking, Graphics, Hard materials and Music. The Group that is am in is the Cooking group with Mrs Heka. For cooking we are learning how to make pasta. Our first pasta dish we made was Spanish meatballs. The picture above shows the finished product of our Spanish meatballs. The main ingredients that we used was obviously pasta which was called Egg noddles, mince for the meatballs and Spinach for the finishing techniques. Overall the cooking was fun but the eating was even better.

Final post for 2017 ( at school )

I can't wait to see what next year will feel like in a much more big class.
