Today was our  Dutch Day and we had a super fun time.
We even had our own Netherlands team
and our red, white and blue team
We tasted a number of traditional Dutch dishes. Here was our menu for the day;
Hotchpotch (or in Dutch Hutspot) is a dish of boiled and mashed potatoes, carrots and onions with a long history in traditional Dutch cuisine
Nasi met Kroepoek – Indonesian rice and prawn crackers
Frikandel Speciaal – Dutch sausage
Gouda cheese
Pepernoten- a Dutch cookie.
A huge thank you to Mr Jansen for preparing all of the food and explaining what each of the foods were and why they are important to the Dutch.
The children also found out many interesting facts about the Netherlands and I Â hope they can remember some of the information and share them with you at home.
