Making S'mores

This week, we found hazards, risks, and the risk level of those risks in a activity that we did in real life. The activities that we did were making a fire and cooking s'mores with the fire.

First, we started by talking about the conditions of the activities. Some of the conditions were: we are using a brazier, we would light the fire at 11am, the fire would be lit on concrete, and there is good enough weather for the fire to be lit.

Next, we talked about the hazards and risks, and wrote the consequences. Then we found out ways we could stop those consequences from happening, and we wrote down an emergency plan of what would happen if those consequences elevated.

We did the same process for making s'mores over the fire.

Once the fire was lit, we were given a demonstration by Mr Ogilvie of how the marshmellows should be cooked. Mr Ogilvie told us to put three marshmellows on a skewer and the skewer was to be held vertically through the rectanglar gaps of the brazier. We then added chocolate sauce if you like to and the crackers to complete the smore.

I enjoyed this activity, but I found it challenging to cook marshmellows without burning it because the fire was very hot.

Here is the video of the smores and the fire
