P2.1 Potato Planting

Mr Strang from Mains Farm came to visit our class.  We were learning how to plant our own potatoes.

Each day we will water the tubs to help them to grow.

 

Mr Strang has invited P2 to enjoy a tour of his farm. We are looking forward to learning about the workings of a dairy farm.
