Inquisitive minds

10 students from IPS in Mrs Westcott's math group went on the train to travel to the out of the box workshop which was hosted at Glenfield Public School. When we arrived, we immediately went to their school hall where we could do warm up puzzles whilst we waited for the schools who haven’t arrived yet. When they arrived, we started lollipop challenges. After we did the lollipop challenges, we started our first challenge. You can get stamps for answering questions correct, the pairs who got the most stamps win. The winners were Maheema and Marcel. We then had a short 30 minute break. We then had to work with students from a different school with the same rules from the first challenge except with almost twice as many questions. The winners were Enoch and his partner from another school . We then had a short 5 minute break with a school photo containing all the different schools mixed together. After that we had a school vs school challenge, where little schools were mixed together. We came second. After that, the prizes for the challenges [all 3] were presented.

Healthy Eating Puffy Dogs

Ingredients Puffy Pastry Sheets thawed Little boys or Cheerios Dipping sauce of your choice Directions 1. Place Little boys or Cheerios into a saucepan of water and boil till cooked, drain and cool so you can easily handle it. 2.Put oven on follow directions on back of puff pastry packaging. Place 3 cheerios onto sheet of pastry leaving a gap between each, moisten pastry and roll once till covered, then out pastry across as if you had 1 big long sausage. Cut the pastry where the gaps are between the sausages and you should be left with the puff pastry wrapped around cheerios. 3.Repeat until sheet of pastry is all gone. Normally you should be able to get about 9-12 puff footy dogs from 1 sheet of puff pastry. Place into oven tray spaced apart pop into pre-heated oven for times check puff pastry packaging, or cook till pastry is golden and puffed, yum Tip They are just as great cold as hot!
