Fantastic Cooking!

This week, Woodpeckers put their learning about healthy eating and the Eatwell Guide into practice as they made their very own ratatouille!

Working in groups, the children used their knowledge of the Eatwell Guide to identify the different ingredients in their dish and think about how they form part of a healthy, balanced diet.

The children also had the opportunity to practise their chopping skills, carefully preparing the vegetables ready to go into their ratatouille. They showed great care when using the equipment and remembered the importance of safe food preparation.

Most importantly, the children worked brilliantly as teams. They shared jobs, listened to one another, took turns and helped each other throughout the cooking process. It was fantastic to see everyone getting involved and taking pride in what they had created.

The children were excited to taste their creations and evaluate what they had made.

A big well done to Woodpeckers for showing such great teamwork and cooking skills!
