SEMAIN DU GOUT AND CROSS

So school was wrapping up for the holidays and we had Semain du Gout which this year was regions of France,  we had to go in (as mom's) to help the kids cook a traditional dish.  It was fun if not a little hectic at times with kids everywhere jumping to stir, cook, fry etc.  I made a cake from Brittany and savoury crepes with sausages.  All the parents are invited on the Friday to eat the eats.



The kids made homemade apple juice with an old fashioned press, and it was delicious.  The hoody is Samuel.



Look at all the plates we cooked.

So the last thing before the holidays was the Cross country race of Autumn. The kids did really well, it is done on a time per age thingy.  Samuel had to run for 8 minutes and Benjamin for 6 minutes and then all the kids get a certificate to say how far they ran, so no loser's, everyone is a winner and all the parents are there to spur them on.


Benjamin at his marker where he finished. He ran 1080m in 6 minutes


Ben at the back-middle in Red, you can just see his head.
