We have been very excited this year at the amount of plums the tree on the playground has produced! A group of Year 3 children have been keen to pick the plums and share them with the rest of the school. Today, with the help of Rod, we got out the step-ladder and went collecting! We picked lots of ripe plums and shook the branches to collect as many as we could! The Year 3 children offered to help hold the ladder and they were very skilled at catching the falling plums! We learn about the joys of seasonal food in our Design and Technology and Cooking lessons so it is great to be able to provide a real-life example of this in our very own playground!

The year 3 children thought it would be lovely to share these delicious plums with the school community so if at the end of the day you would like to come and get a plum or two, then please do! Please give them a good wash and enjoy our harvest!
