Easter Holidays

Have a great holiday everyone, but most of all be safe.

I will be putting photos of the Easter disco on the weekend. I'll post
on here when it's done.

Well done on your costumes everyone, I hope you had a great time. I
certainly did!

Disco

I'I'mm making the CDs for our disco tomorrow. If you have any requests,
post on here or email me.

I can't wait to see your costumes, I'm getting my facepaint ready now!

Play Dough

Some of us had great fun making play dough today. As requested, here is the recipe for a large batch. You can halve the amount for some about the size of a cereal bowl

1 cup cold water
1 cup salt
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 cups flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Food coloring

In a large bowl, mix together water, salt, oil and a few drops of food coloring. Mix flour and cornstarch and add 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly (you may need a little more or a little less than 2 cups flour so make sure you stir in until it is the right consistency). Knead for a few minutes with flour on your hands.


This playdough will keep indefinitely if stored in a covered container (or you can use ziplock bags).

Paints

Remember that tomorrow we will be using paint so if you have an old t
shirt, bring it in

TASC Projects

I hope your TASC projects went well. I can't wait to see what you did.

Web Address

The new school website address is www.stgwladysbargoed.com

We hope you enjoy the new site which will be launched this Easter.

Thank you

Mr Timbrell

Moodle

Remember to have a go at the new Moodle site to write your own recipe or complete the spelling task. Each entry gets your 5 merits.

Cross Training

I don't know about you all but I had to have a nap earlier. I was glad to see how many of you turned up and hoped you enjoyed it. Cross training is fantastic exercise and even if you didn't run all the way around, it will still help your fitness.

Cooking

Well done on your cooking, I hope the honey cakes went down a treat. We will be releasing a cook book at the end of term, in which you can buy all of the recipes you will be making.

George's Marvelous Medicine

We will be writing our own disgusting recipe later in the week. Remember the features of a recipe:
Ingredients and how much,
Cooking times,
Utensils,
A method
Start instructions with a verb,
Pictures are optional.

Try and write your own recipe with any weird or unheard of ingredients you might find in your kitchen....

Latest News

Sorry i havent posted for a while, there have been some problems with the website. Here's a roundup of the latest news and things you need to know.

Congratulations Ty Gwladys on winning the Eisteddfod, you did yourself proud.

We will be cooking many Roman recipes this half term, starting with honey cakes on Friday. Try to look at as many recipes as you can and even try helping out with some cooking at home.

I will hopefully be joining you at cross training on Thursday. If it is raining, ask your parents to phone the school at lunchtime to confirm whether it is still going ahead.

Homework

Maths homework will now be given out on a Friday and is in on Monday.

Spellings and English are given out on the Monday, due in on Friday.

Library

We will be visiting the library tomorrow (Tuesday). If you have a Caerphilly smart card, please bring it with you.

Reading Books

Also, bring library books back in as soon as you finish them or want
to change them.
