Guinness world record
The pretty Mexican city of Durango is usually a quiet, sleepy place,
but recently something special happened. Last week the people of
Durango created a very large bowl of soup, the largest bowl of
soup in the world in fact! Romania held the old record for the
largest bowl of soup, which contained 5045litres of soup! The
Mexican bowl broke that record, however, as it contained an
amazing 5350 litres of soup.
The people of Durango spent months planning this project.
Cooking the soup was a hard job, but finding a cooking pot big
enough was also difficult! A month was spent planning and
building the bowl. Local farmers provided the food that was
needed. All the local restaurants offered their chefs to make the
soup. Many local people worked as waiters and cleaners for the
day. The local schools put on a day-long show of music and
dancing. Thousands of people came to the town to celebrate the
super-sized soup. The cooks had a lot of work to do to prepare the
soup. For example, they had to cut up 530 kg of onions and use
100 litres of vegetable oil!
This project has shown the people of Durango that people can do
anything when they work together. We look forward to hearing
about their next world record!

Dream job
Nathan Bridges is a thirteen-
year-old boy who lives in
Sydney, Australia. Nathan lives
with his parents, sister and their
sixteen family pets! It is
Nathan's dream to become a
zoo keeper like his father. He
really wants to work with
animals and thinks his father
has the best job in the world!
Nathan has had animals since
he was a little boy. He had his
first goldfish when he was just
two years old. At the moment
the family has a cat, five dogs,
two horses, some parrots and
some mice. Nathan's cat lives in
the house, but the other pets
live in the garden. It can be
quite noisy at the Bridges'
house! Luckily the closest
neighbours live 6 km away!
Nathan often visits the zoo
where his father works, and he
knows most of the people who work there. Sometimes at the
weekends he helps clean the zoo. Nathan doesn't mind getting
dirty and he knows it's part of the job. His favourite animals at
the zoo are the lions and tigers from Africa. Next year, Nathan
and his family are going to Kenya to see some wild animals in
their natural home. Nathan hopes to learn even more about the
animals on his first trip abroad.
