Primary 3,4 and 5 recently enjoyed a trip into the Tesco store in Stranraer.  While they were  there the children got to see behind the scenes – including the bakery, offices and canteen.  And, on the shop floor they had a bit of “supermarket sweep” style fun, grabbing items off the shelves and having a go as a checkout operator – scanning items and analysing the receipts.   The boys and girls even got some tasty nibbles to enjoy.

This trip helped them learn more about food production and how it is subsequently passed on to the customer through retail premises.
