Outdoor Learning in Reception
This week in Reception the children have lots of fun exploring all of the areas outside. We noticed that the vegetables in our planters were ready to harvest. We then planted some vegetable plants that will be able to grow throughout the autumn and winter months.
The children discovered that the apple tree in our garden had lots of apples ready to pick. We managed to fill two large buckets with apples from our tree!
We decided that it would be a great idea to make an apple crumble and an apple pie with the apples we had picked. The children helped to wash and chop the apples and also made pastry and crumble mix. After they had cooked, we all had a taste, with custard on top too….the children all agreed it tasted delicious!
