P5s food extravaganza with Stoneyburn

We enjoyed a fantastic day  working with all the Primary 5s at Stoneyburn. Adam said he really enjoyed and made some new friends. The boys and girls really enjoyed working with other children. We had a very interesting day all food related. First we tried some porridge with lots of toppings. Next we researched some of  our favourite foods and where they came from in the world. We then enjoyed a trip to Asda where we were shown the bakery and we got to talk about and try lots of fruit and vegetables. Thank you to Sharon in Asda who was wonderful with the children. We then bought some ingredients to take back to school to try cutting up and making our own healthy wraps.

We used a variety of colours of paint and paint of different textures. First we chose the backdrop colours and blended the paints. then we created the green stems and finally the flowers.
