Apple Crumble

On Friday our class made apple crumble in cooking. The first thing we did was go into the kitchen to eat and Mr Candon got the fry he wanted.
We cut the apples to make make the crumble.
We made the crumble with margarine, brown sugar and dough. Then we put it in the oven to cook. We waited for a half an hour for the crumble to cook so we went into a room with Ger. We learned how to set up a table. This Friday we are going to have our parents over to Fáilte Ireland to cook dinner for them. We will be cooking white chicken with a white sauce and garlic bread. For dessert we will be having apple crumble again.

Cheesy Garlic Bread

Pizza

First we got our dough and rolled it. We needed flour so the dough wouldn't stick to the rolling pin or the table. When we had all of our dough in a circle we put tomato sauce on the surface of the dough. Next we put our toppings on it, we had a choice of onion, tomatoes, mushrooms, ham, chicken, pineapple , cheese and anchovies. We put the pizza in the oven and waited for it to go brown and crispy.

Fairy Cakes

We have recently started cooking classes with Fáilte Ireland. The chefs that are teaching us how to cook are Chef Caroline and Geraldine. It is really great up there. We each got a new uniform with cool steel capped boots. And a really cool chef's jacket, just like the cooks on tv.
Last week we made fairy cakes - we used butter, caster sugar, 2 eggs, raising flour and milk - and when we put them in the oven we got to choose toppings. We chose milk chocolate icing and white chocolate buttons. Very tasty!!
Next week we are going to make pizza!!

The Lord Mayor's Cup - The Final

When we got to The Lord Mayor's Cup Final we were against St.Gabriels. Outside we won the football,the peno's and we lost the racing. The people that competed for our school in the racing are my teacher Barry O Leary, and my friends Dean, Jordan, Shane, Alex, Taylor and William.
Inside it was basketball. The only one to score in the match was me. Back at the climbing wall I was on the same side that I lost on in the Semi-Finals. The people from my school that were competing are Andy (the sna) me, Alex, Shane D, Shane R and Leon. I slipped again on the wall and lost to a girl.
We all sat down and waited for the man with the results. We waited outside for the man with the results. He came out and announced that WE WON!!!!!! We got a trophy, gold medals and a picture with the lord mayor. Larriers Rule!!!!!!

Lord Mayor's Cup - The Semi-Final

When we heard about the Lord Mayor's Cup we were very excited. It sounded like it was fun and it was. When we won the first round we went through to the Semi-Final. When we got to the Semi-Finals we were against St.Vincents.
It was a draw in the football, we won the peno's and then the racing. Inside we were playing basketball. Paul from our school got the first basket in. Then one of the Vincent's players scored. Then I scored. We won 2-1 in the basketball.
Then we did wall climbing. I was against someone slow but he ended up winning because there was a part of the wall I couldn't reach. We all sat down (All the schools sat down) and waited for the results. The man came in with his whistle around his neck and his clipboard. We Did It!!!!!! We made it to the finals. Larriers Rule!!!!!!
