Pat a cake…Baker’s Man

MMMM......Cake
Gonna bake a cake
Make it nice and chocolatee
Put my taste buds to the test
Add all the ingredients of my soul
Mix it with love and passion
Till its blended whole
Enjoy the scent of its sweet fragrance
Gotta taste that delightful essence
Make sure its right for the baking
Heat up the oven……

Trip to Kabhi B Bakery by classes 1to 5was enjoyable and exciting.
The bus ride was the time to recollect the nursery rhymes and mothers’
baking skills.

Each class was divided into three groups led by SAS staff member and an employee of the bakery. The bakery is divided into three sections-The Hot, Cold and Bread section. The Hot section is the main kitchen area where cakes stuffing for the sandwiches, burgers,dabeli pavetc are done. In the Bread section, different varieties of mouth watering breads, pizzas bases are prepared. The students went into the nitty grity of baking, selecting and measuring the right ingredients, process of baking. The Cold sections were a treat to the little SAS students as they saw the cakes being decorated. Students picked up some icing tips. They were then taken to the chocolate sections where they saw the chocolate moulds….a beautiful morning was like visiting Alice in Wonderland.

From the students desk.

We, the students of SAS had gone to Calorx school for an”Innovation Competition.”As we reached there we were escorted by a prefect of the school. We were given a photograph of a table and were asked to redesign it and create a whole new table on a chart paper. We had to make a table for the future. This may sound easy but believe me, it wasn’t. We had got only an hour and a half. It took us 45mins to decide what to make. The other schools were also much engrossed in their work. We made a sort of a “Flipping Concept.”In that you just have to flip the notebook and you’ll get the computer screen(all on the chart paper).We had made many things like that. The experience was awfully good but at the same time it was mind churning!

We the students of Shanti Asiatic School went to the “Innovation Competition” where we stood 2nd out of 17 schools. Its not winning or losing, it is what we are learning from it.We were given a drawing of a table and we were asked to innovate it in such a way that we can use it even after 5yrs.So, we made a flipping concept. We learnt the “Innovation is not what’s in your mind, its what comes out from your mind.”

We just have to think and ink it. We came to know the level of our creativity from this competition and many more things. It was a wonderful experience.
