Gung Hei Fat Choy Everybody! Happy Chinese New Year! It's China Week at Glade. This week, we are in store for lots of surprises and fun activities. To start the week off, in our assembly, we had an exciting food-tasting session! First, we had our school choir sing us a Chinese New Year song, followed by a race between three of the teachers (Ms Leverton, Ms Patel and Miss Hartwell) and three of the pupils (Christopher, 6P, Jada, 3F and Bircon, 4M) were challenged to eat popcorn with chopsticks but the teachers 
were given a harder task to eat mini smarties with chopsticks!After that, we had a food-tasting session with volunteers, Drenica, 6P, Roha, 6M, Dylan, 6M, Mrs Allen, Miss Foster and Mrs Maryon, tasting some new Chinese dishes.
Drenica Tahiri, 6P said:
It was scary experience and we didn’t know what we were eating as the dishes
were not revealed until afterwards. Our first dish was oriental bread this was
tasty but didn’t have much flavour. Secondly we had a vegetarian pie with a soy
sauce filling. Miss foster claimed it was similar to meat but that was impossible as they were all vegetarian dishes! Finally we had rice balls with a bean soup filling. This was an unpleasant taste as I ate it whole because Miss Willers dared me and I was and always will be up for a challenge. Luckily I didn’t throw up for I had a trusty drink of water beside me.

The bread was absolutely brilliant I would eat it any day. The pie was OK as I it was soft in the inside and a very nice pastry. The rice balls were not the best things in the world they were very gooey on the outside while the inside was not as appealing as the outside. My favourite dish would definitely be the oriental sweet bread.
Roha Khan, 6M said:Over all I would say that this was a wonderful experience to taste different
food from China. I would definitely recommend the Oriental Bread to others
because of the sweet taste and because it was my favourite!
Year 6 look forward to the rest of the week and will keep you updated. Goodbye for now!
