Dear students, The ISGR PTA is currently collecting recipes to create an International Cookbook. In order to let the Cookbook become a book for/from the whole ISGR community, you can contribute as well. Besides recipes we would like to add drawings that are related to food. This can be a drawing of your favourite food, kitchen utensils, cakes, a chefjust let your imagination work. Most of the artwork will be printed in black and white, however, the front and back page will be in colour. When you start drawing think about the following: use A5 format paper either black/white and coloured drawings are fine write your name/grade/parent name/email on your drawing send in as many drawings as you like due 23rd of March give in at your schools reception desk We are looking forward to your contribution!
