Prep School Prep Sports Round - up

Beautiful Spring weather accompanied the girls down to St Peters in Lympstone and a stunning position looking over the Exe estuary. Although we are very lucky with our position here on the hill at Queen ’ s we did wonder how the staff and children get anything done when there is such fantastic scenery.

We played four great matches, all played with great enthusiasm with some fantastic play by some of our U10 girls who have been playing with the U11s of late and it has certainly helped their tenacity! Today the boys play against Exeter. On Saturday all our U9 children are off to Millfield for festivals in Netball and Hockey! Last weekend at the NSEA Grassroots competition, Imogen in Year 3 had her first outing on her new pony, taking 3rd place.

Former pupil and now top Nutritionist launches cookbook

A former Queen's College pupil and now a top nutritionist and chef, Hope Pointing has launched a family cookbook. Hope is now a personal chef and nutritionist after receiving a prestigious first - class degree in Nutrition and Food Science BSc, at the University of Reading after Queen's College.

The cookbook entitled ‘ GRUB ’ is a collection of 26 of her most delicious, easy - to - follow recipes that are great for children keen to start learning to cook and for families wanting to eat nutritious and balanced meals. The mouth - watering collection of simple, delicious and healthy recipes were taught to our pupils in Prep this week as part of learning about creating balanced and tasty foods. The collection of traditional and new family favourites, from breakfast snacks through to delicious desserts, are beautifully illustrated with easy - to - follow step - by - step instructions and cooking tips throughout. This week, Years 4, 5 and 6 made and cooked the homemade Cheesy Corn Fritters from the cookbook. Hope said, "I want to teach children and adults about the power of fresh ingredients, the importance of sustainability, and the fun of creating balanced and tasty meals". "I particularly loved the vibrant, bold colours of the easy - to - use flip book", said Mr Mann, Head of Food and Nutrition, "The illustrations are fun and beautiful and the recipes both nutritious and delicious for budding young bakers". To order your copy of the GRUB cookbook you can email Hope at hopepointing@hotmail.co.uk
