Our friends in Sri-Lanka share their lunch with us!

Sri Lanka Cuisine - Rice and Curry
A large bowl of rice, most often boiled, but frequently fried. Sometimes Kiribath, rice cooked in coconut milk, is served. 
A curry of meat, most often chicken or fish. The spicy sauce is usually quite thin and has a coconut milk base.
 
Dahl, spiced lentils
 
A vegetable curry, perhaps of green beans, jackfruit or leeks.
 
Papadums, a thin crisp wafer made from legume or rice flour and served as a side dish.
 
Sambals, which are fresh chutney side dishes; they may include red onion, chili, grated coconut or lime juice, and are often the hottest part of the meal.
 
Apart from the rice, each bowl contains only quite small portions, but as in most of tropical Asia, if a bowl is emptied, it is immediately refilled.
Although Sri Lankan food is similar to south Indian cuisine in its use of chilli, cardamom, cumin, coriander and other spices, it has a distinctive taste, and uses ingredients like dried Maldive fish which are local to the area. It is also much hotter than most south Indian cuisine, and many spicy Sri Lankan preparations are believed to be among the world's hottest in terms of chilli content. While native Sri Lankans are born into this cuisine and develop a healthy tolerance to spicy food, many visitors and tourists to the country often find the spiciness excessive.

The Sunny Thought Project 2012-13

As 2012 draws to its end, I look back and consider the changes made, the changes still to be made. It was certainly the year of opening our classes' Windows to the World!  It's been a year of regular inquiry into connected learning, network learning and the quest for new collaborations from the global village that is now our planet.

Rather than making predictions for 2013 or lamenting what was not achieved in 2012, I'd like to start the new year by thinking back and building on one of our most successful international projects, actually our first ever, The Sunny Thought Project. It is a project that helped students from the whole planet develop their sense of gratitude for what they have and look on the bright side of their lives.
This year we go on with what we want the FUTURE to be like and it is us the students of today who will shape tomorrow! 
The Sunny Thoughts for the Future Global Project is here, ladies and gentlemen! Please welcome it!

Winners Education students have already drawn what they will have our planet look like soon!

With love from Denmark...


Our friends from Denmark shared the amazing view from their class window with us!
Thank you class 2A. We hope we'll have some snow for the holidays too!!!

Με αγάπη από την Δανία...
Οι φίλοι μας από την Δανία μοιράστηκαν μαζί μας την υπέροχη θέα από το παράθυρο της τάξης τους! Ευχαριστούμε τάξη 2Α. Ελπίζουμε να έχουμε κι εμείς χιονισμένες μέρες στις διακοπές μας!
