Primary 1-4 were fortune enough to have a lovely visit from Judith Armstrong of The Fresh Milk Company to do a Dairy class talk. Judith was accompanied by Anna Christie, a DEHS pupil on work experience at the creamery. Together they explained everything from breeds of cows, the milking process, to turning the milk into cheese at the creamery in Stranraer. It was then onto some butter making which required some hard work and effort. As you can tell from the photos the children really gave it their all. Before long the butter had been made and we enjoyed tasting it along with some cheese and crackers. Thank you to RHET ( Royal Highland Education Trust ) for organising this great experience and thanks to Judith and Anna for coming along to the school.<\/p>\n
