The boxes were exchanged at Easter - we received
culture boxes from Majorca and Norway. In the Autumn, each class will
have e-mail links with the pupils from the other schools. We also
intend trying a video conference and we will be able to see and talk
to the other pupils involved in the project.
At our last Circle Meeting we were really
excited when we opened the culture boxes we received from Norway and
Majorca. They contained many different items of interest. We
especially liked the catapult but it is for display only. There are
lots of different foods to try but we don't think we will like the
salt fish that was in the Norwegian box. Mrs Keir, our Home Economics
teacher will show us how to cook it and then some of us might taste
it. The different cheeses in their box look good, hopefully it will
taste as good as it looks. We are going to have a food-tasting
afternoon. Read about what we thought of the food later. Click on the
