We washed our hands thoroughly before leaving the farm.

“The cows are milked twice a day, 4.30am and the other at 3.00pm” – Mr Strang

Thank you Mr Strang for a most enjoyable and educational visit.

What a treat!

Science Experiment!

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 grow.

Josie – “The potatoes need water, light and mud to grow”.

 I have helped to grow plants and can name their basic parts.
I can talk about how they grow and what I need to do to look after them.
