One small step for man, one giant leap for mealtime.

Year six have been entered in an exciting competition, asking to create a three course meal to be eaten in space by a British astronaut, Tim Peake! At first we took a look at the 'Eatwell Plate', a pie chart showing the five different food groups and how much of them you need. Next we were investigating what the ISS (international space station) was and what it is like living in a non gravity zone for over four months ; we were amazed at how many normal everyday activities, such as sleeping, can change so much! Obviosly, we needed to get started preparing the meal, so my group ( Meg, Beth, Caison, Izzy and Evan) began making sheets full of the information on how to make White Soup, Spicy Tuna Pasta and Fruit Salad in Yoghurt. A research-full week later, we went up to Friendly Faces and cooked our courses! Surprisingly, they actually tasted exceptionally tasty!
