Today we made pizzas as part of our 'Instructional Writing' work. First we covered bases in tomato puree, then added lots of cheese, ham, chorizo and pepperoni, before putting them in the oven. They looked amazing and the smell wafting up the corridor even caught the attention of Mrs Walford, who decided to put the pictures on the school Twitter page, prompting Pizza Express to send us a reply!
Check out the pictures below:
We wanted to share the children's excellent online learning!
