Kia ora whanau! What an amazing week for contrasts in weather! From dark dark thunder storms with lightning and hail to bright blue skies and sunshine. What a week!
Our fabulous Enviro Kids have begun to create the bottle top garden art that will be used to decorate our gardens.
This week we harvested some of our sensational silverbeet and Room 2 was the lucky class to take it home to share with their whanau.
Here is the recipe of the week from Whaea Emma in Room 2. She says that Jaeda and Odette liked it too and even ate it all up!
Green Vege & Ricotta Fettucine You will need: 1 tub ricotta cheese 2 cloves garlic, crushed 2 courgettes cut into strips 1 leek finely sliced silverbeet 100gm frozen peas wholegrain fettucine 200gm green beans or snowpeas pinenuts and parmesan, (and/or chilli flakes), to taste
What you do: Cook the pasta until aldente. Cook the garlic and leeks until soft. Add courgettes, peas, grean beans and silverbeet. Cook as desired. Add 1/2 cup of pasta water and cooked pasta. Stir through the ricotta. Serve with pinenuts, parmesan and chilli flakes sprinkled over the top. Enjoy!
Welcome back to another fabulous term at Sylvia Park School!
Our Enviro Kids have been very restricted with the rain this week.
But we are very grateful that it has started raining and the drought is over!
As a result of this fabulous rain, our silverbeet has really taken off. We were able to harvest some this week and the lucky children in Room 1 got to take it home to share with their whanau.
We are planning the next lot of planting for next week, so keep watching our gardens.
