After reading the story ‘Handa’s Surprise’ this week the children took an interest in the different fruits that appear in the story.
Today they got to taste some fruits from around the world . The children tried Pomegranate, Watermelon, Mango, Passionfruit, Grapefruit and Apricot. All of the children thoroughly enjoyed the fruit and manged to finish every single piece!

The children said
Raya – ‘Raya eating fruit.’
James – ‘My favourite fruit was the watermelon because it was so yummy!’
Lottie – ‘I didn’t like the one with the spicy seeds in it.’
Nancy – ‘I didn’t like the Grapefruit but I liked the Pomegranate’
Jasmine – ‘I only liked the Watermelon’
Cody – ‘I liked all of them.’

Following the children’s interest of role playing in our ‘Bumblebees café’, we decided to visit a real life Café!
The children were very excited to go to Café Eleven in the village.
First we sat and watched Karen serve all of the people in the Café, we saw her preparing food, making coffee and taking money then putting it in the till.
We then got to read some magazines whilst we waited to place our order.
We were very excited to go up to the counter and have a look at all the food on display and then place our order. We all had Hot Chocolate and Oreo’s, they were delicious!
Karen then showed us some coffee beans which we got to hold and smell, she then showed us what it looked like after it was ground down into a coffee powder, we loved the feel and the smell of it.
After finishing our Hot Chocolate we got to have a look at everything that the Café sells. We learnt lots and had a great afternoon !

Bumblebees had great fun in the snow this morning !
