Recipe for success

"I want to take it home and stick it on my wall"

I've just been told that the student in the "Wind power? I`m a massive fan" project. wants creating this, wants to "take it home and stick it on my wall". This is true student ownership and engagement. This student is one of a small group who have asked if they can present at the school Teachmeet tonight to showcase their work. Of course they can!

I can wait to hear how and why they have been completely sol on this project and all it's technical glories. 

Another lovely student journal

Some End of Day one student reflections

Cakeworld Project

Our students in CakeWorld today have been exploring some key skills of Baking 101 – making cupcakes and trialling out how to colour, roll and shape royal icing.  They’re very excited about the project of creating the Sphinx, Pyramids, Petra and Maccu Piccu.

Students have been generating some initial ideas and responses to the project (see pics) and have been creating some cupcake designs.

We have already allocated a  Star Baker award to mason who not only worked solo on the cupcakes, but was resilient at trying new skills and for someone who ‘doesn’t know how to crack an egg’, did a pretty darn impressive job!!   We have been surprised, impressed and proud of how they have all taken to Day 1 of this project…our trip to The Hancock Museum tomorrow will be an exciting adventure…we get to meet a real-life (dead hehe) mummy!
