Masterchef Final

Fri 12 Jul 2019

On Tuesday our final 5 contestants went to Tom Browns for our Junior Masterchef competition.

They had a fantastic time and had 2 challenges to complete. The first was to create a plate of perfectly scrambled eggs. They were presented with eggs, cream, milk, butter and salt and given no further instructions! They all did a splendid job and it was very close to judge.

The second challenge was plating up a desert that Tom Browns recently served at an Alice in Wonderland event. They were each provided with a piece of strawberry cheesecake and had to plate it up after watching the head chef demonstrate. All 5 of their desserts looked, and tasted, delicious!

It was a very close final but the winner was Erica! A huge well done, to Oliver, Jaby, Hannah and Orla who all did incredibly well and should be very proud of themselves.

We have had a fantastic week with Sports Day on Tuesday and Junior 2 taking part in a play in a day all about Reduce, Reuse and Recycle- do watch the video on Junior 2 class page to see how brilliant they all were!

On to our brilliant book..

Infant 1- Alex and Jake for their fantastic observtional drawings of leaves. They looked really carefully and took their time including lots of detail

Infant 2- All of year 1 were nominated for being so well behaved and sensible at swimming especially this week. They beat all the juniors getting changed and were a pleasure to take.

Ella J- For her fantastic use of sentence stems to explain her thinking in maths.

Junior 1- For all year 4s who went to Walesby for representing our school so well. So many of them recieved their values certificate today because they showed how well these were engrained and lived out when they were away. It was fantastic to hear about all the fun things they got up to- especially the water fight!

Junior 2- Mr Tyler wanted to put all the class in the book for 2 fantastic reasons. Firstly for all their help running sports day, it would not have been so smooth without their service. Ensuring others were able to have a go at all the sports rather than taking part themselves the whole time. Secondly for their fantastic performance in the play in a day. They all demonstrated great determination to learn all their lines and directions!
