Gardening/Soup Making and Harvest Knots
Steffi Otto from Heritage in Schools came into school to help us with our garden. We harvested all our potatoes, carrots and parsnips that we planted last year. We enjoyed getting our hands dirty!
Steffi also showed us how to make 'Harvest Knots' using dried wheat. The senior children helped the juniors to make them too. We enjoyed listening to stories about harvest time long ago. We also had fun milling some wheat into flour using a saddle stone and sieve.
Later the seniors made some wholesome soup using all of the vegetables from our school garden. It was delicious!
