9G have had another really busy week at home. Let's see what we've all been getting up to. 
 

Calum has been working hard on his reading and ICT skills. He has worked hard on a range of tasks on purple mash and education city. He has also enjoyed going for a 3 mile walk and got to feed some…

9G got very busy today in cooking. We made lots of mini pizza quiches. We cut the wraps into circles, chopped peppers, tomatoes and salami and cracked the eggs to mix together our base. We took turns with our partners to do this and helped each other throughout the whole process. We then put the…

Before we started, we needed to wash our hands and put our aprons on as we know it is important to make sure our hands are clean and that our uniform stays clean too.
