Hedgehogs
Hedgehogs have had a fantastic Farming Week. We started by watching a video all about Curly the sheep and his problem wool! We then made our own woolly sheep and other farm animals. In the middle of the week we made our own butter using cream and our own flour with wheat seeds from Ant the Farmer. We finished the week with a morning mucking out the sheep and making them feel at home.
Squirrels
Squirrels Class did a taste test of foods produced in the UK, including red onions, Lancashire cheese and blueberries. Blueberries were most popular!
We experimented with tie-dyeing with natural materials – turmeric and red cabbage – and of course we have been in meeting the sheep!
Foxes
