Year 2 DT – cooking and nutrition unit

Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend.

In year 2 we will be making an exotic fruit salad in our DT unit.

We would like the children to bring in a small plastic box with a lid so they can bring it home.

Please ensure they bring it to school by Friday 14th July.

If any children have any specific fruit allergies that we are unaware of please email us or write in the reading diary.

Thank you
