The children noticed that the plums on the tree in the garden were very red. We picked some to check that they were ripe.

The adults prepared the plums by washing them and removing the stones before we all tasted them.

The children also had the opportunity to make plum tarts with Miss Wright. We discussed good hygiene, how to prepare the plums, how to stay safe when using a knife and how to stay safe when using the oven. We took turns to prepare them. When they were ready, we let them cool and took them home to eat!
