Pre-Prep Farm to Fork visit

Last week Reception, PP1 and PP2 visited the Tesco superstore in Thirsk to take part in their Farm to Fork project which helps children to learn about where their food comes from. The children had the opportunity to learn and taste different cheeses, find out where their fruit and vegetables come from and then how all the bread in Tesco is made each morning. PP2 also had the chance to have a go at making their own hot cross buns from scratch. Then all the children had the chance to go behind the scenes at the super market: after a chilly visit to the fridge and freezer, they learnt about how online shopping works by seeing the vans loaded up for their deliveries. To end the trip the children got to fill some goody bags with fruit, vegetables and freshly filled jam doughnuts. It was a fantastic trip that was enjoyed by all of year groups with plenty to see and do!
