Bread Baking 5H!, by Miss Healey
Date: 28th Mar 2025 @ 2:37pm
Year 5 have had a very exciting week this week! They have, over the course of several weeks, designed their own bread for a specific purpose. This week was baking week! The children used a lot of independence to select their own ingredients, weigh them out, knead the dough and shape their designs. The bread came out wonderfully and smelled amazing! While it was still warm from the oven, the children taste-tested their creations (with some very mixed reactions!) I am very proud of their creations and they have all got a piece to take home so I'm sure families will be too!

Our 2 WOW Church members visited St Chad's Church in Middleton to delivered a presentation, alongside our group members from St John's Thornham and Milnrow Parish Primary School, to over 40 diocese representatives. The children explained and showed the diocese the various projects we have worked on this year, set up an environmental challenge for the parishioners to complete and then sung our song, 'Rich Diversity'. Each child represented their school brilliantly and the Dean of Rochdale was so impressed with the way the children conducted themselves during the presentation. The diocese is taking on board the children’s suggestions of a Plastic Policy in every church and we look forward to next year's group where we hope to again make a difference to the environment of our churches in Rochdale.
