Year 4 had a wonderful DT afternoon! By the end of the term, the children will design, create and evaluate a healthy dish for a specific audience and event.

Today, they sampled various ingredients such as parsnips, carrots, onion, apples and potatoes. They then visited each of the Year 4 classrooms to taste-test 6 dishes made from the ingredients. They sampled a vegetarian cottage pie, beef stew, vegetarian chilli, potato salad, apple crumble and pumpkin pie (made by the Year 4 teachers)! During, they analysed each dish, concentrating on its appearance, smell, taste and texture, before voting on a dish to recreate following the recipe next week.
