Our topic this half term is ‘We Are What We Eat.’ As part of our topic work, we are learning about where our food comes from.
Today, we visited Morrisons and were shown round by their ‘Community Champion.’ We visited the Market Street and the Butchers, Fishmongers, Cheesemongers, Bakery, Fruit and Vegetable section and we also visited the front of the warehouse.
We learnt which animals our meat comes from, which 3 animals produce cheese, that some fish come from the river whilst others come from the sea and which ingredients are used to make bread. We also explored the Fruit and Vegetable section and were surprised to find that some of the foods we eat have travelled a very long way before finally making their way to the supermarket shelves.
We enjoyed exploring different packaging to help us find out where in the world our food has come from. We had a lovely time; we enjoyed our walk in the sunshine and learnt so much more about where our food comes from. Thank you Morrisons!
