Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning about Harvest. As part of this we have been wheat detectives to find out which foods contain wheat. We also took part in a live lesson led by NFU Education where we met farmer Hannah to learn all about what happens during a cereals harvest and we joined with children from around the globe to make the world’s biggest combine harvester!
