Galette des rois

Dear Parents,

This year for Epiphany, we will be having a BFG activity where the students get to partake in the experience of' 'Galette des rois'.

A Galette des rois is a puffed pastry cake often filled with frangipane, but we will substitute it for chocolate for a nut-free version. A charm, called 'fève' is then hidden inside. Whoever finds the charm in their piece of galette is crowned king or queen for the night. This is a tradition often celebrated in France, Quebec and other francophone regions around the world.

As Epiphany occurs on the first day back from Christmas break, we ask that parents volunteer to help us make enough of this delicious puffed pastry for everyone to enjoy. If you would like to volunteer, please click on the following link to sign up.



Thank you!!
