DS1 (Year 9) was told last week that the group would be cooking pizza today - ie Tuesday 11th Jan. However by Friday he had received no list of ingredients, so I impressed on him the need to track down the teacher yesterday to check what was needed.
So DS tracked down the teacher yesterday, and was told to check a recipe book for a pizza recipe. He told a few others in the group.
I had bought some mozzarella previously intending to use it for something else, but kept this for him, in case pizza cooking still on, which it apparently was. So he and I assmebled pizza base ingredients, plus topping. Planned to eat for tea tonight.
DS arrived home announcing that no cooking done. He also added that teacher yesterday had said they would "probably" cook. He found out today that at midday yesterday she had decided they would not cook, and told some people this (but not all, obviously)
Just posting as v annoyed about this, and wondering what to do - it seems like a waste of ingredients (not sure if fancy using mozzarella that's been out all day) and we have had to cook something out of freezer for tea. Maybe trivial in scheme of things, but DS was wondering it to do Food Tech next year as GCSE, and I am going off the idea.
What would anyone do in similar situation?
