Curried vegetables and lemon muffins

 Room 16 was really excited to be back at Garden to Table for the first time this term. Unfortunately the rain was pouring down and our little gardeners were a little worried about getting too cold and wet while they dug potatoes. Luckily Moira had a back up plan and potatoes were dug and seed cones created with some awesome origami skills. This sparked a lot of joy as the children competed to see who could make the smallest seed cone. Congratulations Alex, yours was so small you could only fit a few poppy seeds in it!

Back in the kitchen the children were slicing delicious school grown veg and juicing lemons. I was really excited to hear that every vegetable in the meal today (except for the carrots) came from the school gardens. I am very sorry to report that there were no leftovers at all. The children loved their curry and golden rice so much that some had 5 servings! And well done to Nixon for trying the curry - ka pai!

Thank you to our amazing Garden to Table team and to our awesome parent helpers-  we couldn't do it without you!
