Reception - Maiden Castle Farm Trip

Hello everyone,

Firstly, thank you to all the parents that were able to help this morning on the farm trip, that is most appreciated! The children did superbly well to walk up to the farm and then back again at the end! To say that they had earned their lunch would be an understatement! At the farm we learnt all about how a farm runs, with a particular focus on Harvest time! We found out what types of crops Maiden Castle Farm grew and what they were used for. See if you can remember what was grown...! Hint, most of them were used in your breakfasts! We then were lucky enough to go up into the combine harvester! This was greatly appreciated by the children! Finally, we got to go and see the pigs and give them their snack - which consisted of the leftovers from our snacks!

Lastly, just a little not to say that the lists for parents evenings have gone up outside the classroom door. Please feel free to put your name down in a slot that suits you best. If either of these days are not achievable then please let us know because we can arrange another time when needed. Thank you.

  1. Very impressive children and great stamina for their first trip in Reception class. What a long walk and hardly any complaints on the way back, I believe that's a first?!!
