THE

Reading champ! Races into the lead

DUDLEY CHALLENGE Over the summer holidays, I entered the Dudley Library Reading Challenge. You had to read 6 books across the 6 weeks. I really enjoyed completing the challenge; my favourite book was 'The Shadow Keeper' by Abi Elphinstone. I recently found out that my name had been pulled out of a hat and I had won the 7-12 years age range. On Saturday I attended the presentation and was awarded gift vouchers to race go carts at a local circuit, EVERY LITTLE HELPS As part of our ‘Farm to Fork’ topic, Year 3 visited the Tesco Extra store in Dudley. We were met by Kerry, a Tesco employee, who was so helpful and friendly! Our guide took us in where we were given funny paper hats to wear as we were going into the bakery. We were shown huge mixing machines that the bakers use to mix the dough for the many types of bread that are made there. We learnt about all the different ingredients that are used to make bread. We all sniffed the yeast- it smelt so yukky! Luckily we got to taste lots of the delicious, mouth-watering bread, buns and pancakes! Next it was off to the freezer where food is stored to keep it fresh. It was so cold! Onto the cheese counter where we saw cheeses that were made from cow’s, goat’s and even sheep’s milk. Were able to taste lots of the cheese. We tried one that tasted like cheese and onion crisps! Lots of us thought it tasted lovely and creamy, but some of us thought it was bitter and horrible! On the fish counter we saw those caught from the sea or fresh-water fish caught in rivers and farm. The fish were shiny and had beautiful, glimmering scales. Finally the fruit aisle where we were each given a bowl. We were able to try lots of different fruits, grown in this country and from other countries around the world. It was a juicy, scrumptious fruit salad! which I'm really looking forward to. Thanks to Daniel in 6V for the story
