This week in Science

The middle students were excited to undertake their first cooking ‘experiment’ during Science this week. The amazing harvest of corn, carrots, capsicum, and tomatoes was incorporated to create yummy Traffic Light Fritters that the whole school was able to enjoy!

 

As students were very keen to cook the Traffic Light Fritters for their families, we have included the recipe below.
