Mushroom Tasting Time

It is time...let's pick the mushrooms and cook them up.

We picked them carefully and washed them to get all the dirt off. Then we put grated cheese, parsley and spring onions on top.



Last of all we baked them in the oven and abracadabra...



They looked scrumptious and smelled delicious!
Most of us had a taste and liked them. Mr Dickson loves mushrooms so we shared some with him too.



I think he likes it :)

Thanks Addy and Addy's mum for this great mushroom growing and tasting experience.

We made these pic collages so we could practise our letter names and their sounds. Have a go at them all...

Landfill Trip Stories

Read some of our great writing about our trip...

Big Machines
We went to the landfill and we saw a special crusher. We saw heaps of rubbish and we saw some trucks. We saw a digger and we learned about recycling.  By Kaden


The Dump
We went to the landfill dump with Room One. There was 'fart gas'and there was a crusher. We went on a bus. There was lots of rubbish blowing around and it smelled stinky. We had to wear jackets.  By Neena


The Crusher
I liked the crusher. It had spiky wheels and it crushed the rubbish. The 'fart gas' was smelly.  By Shikane


Landfill Trip
Yesterday we went to the landfill. We saw seagulls and they were flying over all the rubbish. The smell was disgusting - it was 'fart gas'. We saw valleys and mountains. They were so big. It was sunny and we needed hats. We went in a bus. It was a little bit wobbly. Neena and me sat in the front  we were excited. There was a swimming pool but we were not allowed to swim in the pool.  By Anoop

* 'fart gas' is what the people at the landfill call the methane gas. We learned that they now turn it into electricity and it makes enough for 2,000 houses.
