Fat Thursday

8th Feb 2018

Today Alan brought in some delicious Faworki to celebrate Fat Thursday. Alan talked about the festival and shared the treat with the class. We loved learning about it.

Fat Thursday, the last one before the Ash Wednesday, is a festival of overeating when everyone eats the Fat Thursday's specials: ‘favorki’ crunch cakes and the Polish doughnuts (balls with rose-petals jam filling) which are a must-eat treat on that day.

It was super!
