By Mrs Arrowsmith (German Teacher)
Thursday 7th June marked a display of talent as the Year 7 students engaged in a captivating German poetry recital contest, showcasing their mastery of the timeless German children's poem, Backe, backe Kuchen. This delightful verse provides invaluable guidance on crafting the perfect cake, encapsulating the essence of culinary artistry.
We are delighted to announce that Meira Gulati, Ava Hanson and Esme Wiltshire from 7CAB, emerged as the winners. Their performances earned them well-deserved accolades and the sweet indulgence of German and Swiss chocolate prizes. A very well done!
Backe, backe Kuchen
Backe, backe Kuchen,
der Bäcker hat gerufen,
wer will guten Kuchen backen,
der muss haben sieben Sachen:
Eier und Schmalz,
Butter und Salz,
Milch und Mehl,
Safran macht den Kuchen gel.
