Master cheese makers

Rosie the Cow sent us a cheese making kit.

Mrs Serci read the instructions to us. Easy!

 We needed to microwave 2 litres of full cream milk and a little bit of cheese culture.

 We counted down the time left on the microwave.

 We added some rennet. This helps to thicken up the milk.

 After 20 minutes the mixture had thickened up. We had turns 'slicing' the cheese mixture.

 Mrs Serci strained off the liquid and squeezed the mozzarella cheese during lunch time. This helped to make it into a cheese ball.

 The cheese ball had a nice salt bath for 20 minutes.

 Mrs Serci sprinkled our mozzarella cheese on some wrap bread and cooked it for us.

 We all tried a little bit of our cheese wrap.

It was so yummy, most of us had a BIG piece.

Mmm, mmmm!

Thank you Rosie.

Check out Rosie's website. You will find lots of information and games to play.

 Step 2: Shake the jar. Make sure you have the lid on!

 Step 3: Keep shaking...

 Step 4:  and shaking ...

 Step 5: and even more shaking.

Step 6: The cream is now thick. There should not be any  'sloshing' sound.

 

Step 7: Now shake it again!

Step 8: Keep shaking until it starts 'sloshing' again.

Step 9: The butter should have separated from the butter milk.

Step 10: Pour the butter milk out. (This can be used for baking or drinking).

Step 11: Use the yummy home-made butter!

Redwood School's RED Race

Six Room 9 children took part in the first RED Race. 

Wow, they were amazing. 

They had to climb through spider webs, crawl under a cargo net, jump off a tramp, climb over a big wall, slide down a pole, score a goal, and many more things.

We are so proud of you.
