Year 3 visit to Kenyon Hall Farm

Year 3 visited Kenyon Hall Farm as part of their Science topic on plants and DT topic on seasonal fruit and vegetables.

The children got a food and farming tour covering topics such as the different growing seasons, sustainability, crop life cycles, farm machinery, history of farming, healthy eating and the large-scale production of food.

Plus, the children got to experience hands-on planting of vegetables in the plant centre. With the help of an experienced gardening professional, every child got chance to plant their own produce to take home, watch, grow and enjoy the harvest. This teaches a number of lessons including the science behind the plant life-cycle, caring for living things and patience!
