Real Life Look at Migration
Second Year geographers have been studying migration this term. After listening to some fascinating stories about the pupils’ own families’ experiences of migrating to and within the UK, the focus has turned towards the refugee crisis in the Middle East. As part of understanding the culture of Syria and the surrounding countries, the pupils were tasked with researching some Middle Eastern recipes to have a go at making over half term. They brought a range of amazing looking dishes to the lesson including Syrian shortbread cookies, Jordanian hummus, mehalabya (a Jordanian dessert), menemen (a Turkish egg dish), a typical Syrian breakfast and Turkish delight to name but a few. By all accounts, all were a resounding success and will be made again
