Summer sports










































Last week we had really good weather in Alcorcón, so we decided to go to the park to play some summer sports with our P.E. teacher, Joaquín. Our teachers Laura and María helped us making up our faces. We had a lot of fun. We enjoyed the slide and played with the sand, frisbees,... But what we really like is playing football!! Here you have some pictures.

Fun things to do in England - By Class 3 Pulham Primary School

Class 3 have spent the morning thinking of fun things to do in England.

As we are writing this, the children are sitting on the carpet sharing their ideas with Mrs. Brooks and she is typing them onto the blog!

Here are our ideas

Covent Garden in London
Legoland - Windsor
Diggerland in Blackpool
Bungay Swimming Pool
Goosetree - a little village in the North of England
Tyrell's Wood - this is very near to our school and we sometimes go there for school trips. We used twigs to make things!
Banham Zoo
Pleasurewood Hills
Odeon Cinema in Norwich
Cornwall - a beautiful place for a holiday with lovely scenery but quite a long way from us!
The London Eye
London Dungeons
Bungay - a market town
The Dinosaur Adventure Park
Pulham Market Park or Diss Park
Tower Bridge
Colchester Zoo

These places are all great fun. We are sure if you want to know more about them you could look on the internet!

Bunnet in Paris

Bunnet also had a holiday during his stay in Pulham. He was lucky enough to go to Paris and look around a different country with one of the boys in Class 3 and his family. He had a great time!

Pictures to follow soon!

Bunnet and the Cathedral


Bunnet has also been to Norwich Cathedral which you can see here in the background. It is a beautiful building.

Bunnet and Banham Zoo


Another place tourists might like to spend time at is on holiday in Pulham Market is Banham Zoo.


Bunnet had a lovely day and saw lots of animals.

Bunnet's challenges



Bunnet has been really enjoying his last few weeks in Pulham Market and has been finding out about the local area. As well as spending time in Pulham Market he has been visiting the nearby city of Norwich to find out about the activities people could do if they came on holiday here.
Bunnet enjoyed visiting Norwich City Football Club, unfortunately there hasn't been many matches on as the football season has finished here but he enjoyed looking around the ground.

Bunnet really enjoyed his visit to Norwich Castle. He enjoyed looking at all the different exhibitions and particularly liked the polar bear and lion exhibits.


He was lucky enough to go there on a trip too with Classes 3 and 4 to see a 'Beatles to Bowie' exhibition. This helped him with one of his other challenges, learning about famous musicians in the UK. More about his discoveries later!

SPANISH RECIPES


Here you have two typical spanish 'tapas' you could enjoy in our country. Huckerby found cooking them quite easy!!

1. Jamón Ibérico (Iberico Ham):

This ham has to be cut in very thin slices, and it can be accompanied by a slice of bread with olive oil and fresh tomato.

2. Patatas Bravas (Brava Style Potatoes): Peel some potatoes and cut them in big pieces. Fry them in olive oil until they are soft inside but crunchy outside. Put salt and add the brava sauce (tomato sauce with chile).

Enjoy!

TORTILLA DE PATATAS (Spanish omelette)


This time, Huckerby cooked a Spanish omelette with María.

Ingredients:

- 4 potatoes (medium sized)

- 1 onion

-4 eggs

- Olive oil

- Salt

Peel the potatoes and the onion. Cut them all in small slices and fry them in a pan with a lot of olive oil. Add salt.

In a big bowl open and shake the eggs. Add the fried potatoes and onion.

Put the mixture in a pan with a little bit of oil. Fry that side of the omelette for a couple of minutes and turn it with the help of a big plate. Fry the other side of the omelette for 1 or 2 minutes. Enjoy it!!

PAELLA DE MARISCOS (Seafood Paella)


Huckerby has been cooking with María. This is one of the two typical spanish recipes he tried.

Ingredients:

-300 gr. of rice

- 250 gr. of clams

- 250 gr. of prawns

- 250 gr. of squid rings

- 1 litre of water

- 1 green peppers

- 2 tomatoes

- Salt

- Olive oil

- Saffron

Chop the tomatoes and the pepper and put them in a pan with some olive oil, and fry them for 5 minutes. Add the squid rings and fry all together for 5 more minutes..

Wash the clams and add them to the pan with the tomatoes, the peppers and the squid rings. Add the rice, some salt and saffron and fry it for 2 or 3 minutes, so that the rice gets all the flavour of the vegetables and the seafood.

In a different pan, we boil the prawns peels and heads. Add the broth you get and the peeled prawns to the mixture of rice, seafood and vegetables, and cook for 15 or 20 minutes. Yummy!!
