Reception classes have been learning about milk and the processes involved in getting it from udder to carton. The recent trip to Barleylands farm park and craft village gave them the opportunity to meet some cows and learn more about dairy farming. They also had great fun making butter and tasting delicious milkshakes. An exciting tractor ride took the lucky children to wheat fields where they learnt how crops grow and how they are harvested. To round off the visit, pupils made pizzas from scratch. As the fresh pizzas cooked, the wonderful aroma made mouths water and tummies rumble. Unsurprisingly (farm animals, pizza and milkshake!), this fun-filled trip was enjoyed immensely by our Reception children.
