Trip to the Hirsel for 'field to fork'

25th September 2025
Our science learning about plants with links to the Stone Age to Iron Age were reinforced with a great trip to the Hirsel in Coldstream for a ‘field to fork’ interactive day.  The children were able to explore the crops and identify which ones were available in Stone Age to Iron Age times and which ones are more modern.  They also had a cooking workshop to make oat cakes and butter.  A really interesting day - we were also very grateful for the beautiful sunshine as we were outside a lot of the day.
