Mrs Fell made us some marshmallow Easter eggs. They tasted yummy.


Mrs Fell's Recipe for Easter Eggs

Marshmallow
Mix together 1Tbsp gelatine
and 1/4 cup cold water.
Stir 1/2 cup hot water and 1 cup sugar
over low heat until sugar dissolves.
Combine both mixtures, bring to the boil.
Boil for 6 minutes.
Cool to lukewarm.
Add 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp lemon juice.
Beat at high speed until thick and creamy,
about 5 minutes.

Fill baking dish with flour.
Make dents in flour with an ordinary egg.

Pour marshmallow into each dent.
Wait for it to set, then put 2 halves together.

Chocolate
Melt 125 grams Cooking Chocolate and
60 grams of Kremalta over gentle heat.

Dip eggs in chocolate and then roll in coconut.

When set, EAT. They are delicious.

On Friday 12 March
'The Minstrel'
came to visit Turuturu School.

Through 'Hiwi the Kiwi' he taught us
how to go fishing safely
and also to protect our kai moana
so there will always be plenty
in the sea for future generations.

His songs have been very popular with everyone.

The Minstrel asked everyone
to write a story
about a fishing adventure,
and the winner would receive
their very own fishing rod.

A very excited Neve (R9) was the winner
from the junior classes.

Here is her story.


My dad and I
went fishing
in the ocean.
I got one big fish
and we ate it
for dinner.
