Our Visit to Shetland Catch

This morning we were lucky to have a visit to Shetland Catch. We hopped on the bus to the Shetland Catch. When we got there, we went into the canteen and split into three groups. We got shown all around outside, in the offices, and in the factory by John, Paul and Graeme. It is mackerel season just now. Herring season will be later in the year. Here are some photos of our trip:

Here is what we have to say about our visit:

Jenna – I saw a cracked box with fish!

Jenson – In the freezer we could see lots of boxes of frozen mackerel and herring

Peter – We went into the freezer. It was really really cold! It was minus 23 degrees celcius!

Isaac – Before we went into the factory we needed to wash our feet and our hands.

Lauree-Ann – The freezer wasn’t as cold as I thought it would be!

Kealan – We got to take home some of the glue for making the boxes.

Ella – I thought we might get hypothermia in the freezer – it was so cold!!

Chenet – We went on the high bridge and could see the factory.

Mark – We got to go into a forklift and toot the horn!

We  really enjoyed it. Thank you!
