Pasta week in Lord’s Kitchen

This week saw students being creative with pasta and used their prior knowledge from sauce week. For all students it was the first time they had made homemade pasta and the results for these novice chefs were remarkable, with a great range of dishes including presto tagliatelle,  mushroom tortellini and spinach and ricotta ravioli . Very successful lesson with lots collaboration and confidence building

Yr 7 Pot stands – Woodworking skills

The year 7 Pot stand project is nearly completed.  Students learned new practical skills using a variety of traditional hand tools and some workshop machinery.  For the majority, this was the first time they had done any woodworking.  Particular highlights were using the sanding machine and making cross-halving joints with a chisel and mallet!
