Food Tech
Our citrus trees are in abundance of fruit, so the students in Prep, Year 1 and Year 2 loved harvesting and sampling oranges, mandarins, grapefruit, limes and lemons.
The students in Year 5 and 6 participated in their first Food Tech session. They enjoyed working in groups to make pancakes. Eggs from our chickens and lemons from the garden were used. You can find the recipe below.
