The Fashion Show Student Committee
A BIG THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! to all the students who responded to the call for committee members to help with this years Wesley College Fashion Show. We've had a fantastic response from you and no doubt we will have no shortage of highly motivated and willing students to participate in the running of the fashion show. We are delighted that there's such a keen interest to get involved and help out with this event especially as the proceeds go towards Habitat and the school hockey and rugby tours. We look forward to announcing the committee by the end of next week. We also have lots of roles for those that don't make the 10 member committee but are still willing to get involved and help out with the event. Watch this space.............

Rain Rain go away!!!!!!
What a wet week in Dublin???
With buckets of rain failing outside the best thing to do is stay home and cook up a storm in the kitchen.......... This weeks recipe is seasonal.....Pumpkin Soup!
Pumpkin flesh is being carved up by lots of people in the run up to Halloween, why not put some of this delicious vegetable to good use! I tried this recipe last night and it's really tasty!
Pumpkin Soup
100g butter
2 leeks
1 litre veg stock
1.5kg pumkin flesh
250g spinach
30g peas
300ml cream
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Salt and pepper
Fry the leeks gently in melted buter for 10 minutes.
Peel and chop the pumpkin up removing seeds in the process. (dry and roast if you have the time)
Add the pumkin, nutmeg, stock and simmer for approx 30 minutes.
Add the peas and spinach, cook for about 5 minutes then stir in the cream. Season to taste.
Enjoy!
