On Tuesday, March 26th, 5B visited the Toby Carvery at the Metro Centre as part of our ‘Where Does Food Come From?’ topic.
As soon as we walked through the door of the carvery, we could smell the food and it smelled delicious! It looked impressive too!
We were looked after by a waitress called Karli who gave all the children crayons, colouring sheets, gel pens and paper to keep them busy until their drinks were brought over. We even got a packet of cress seeds each which we can grow in school.
Karli and one of the chefs then gave the children a talk about how the different vegetables served at the carvery are grown, which animals the different meats come from and what we need for a balanced diet.
After the talk, it was time for a lovely roast lunch, which was provided free to the children. Amongst the choices to eat were: roast potatoes, peas, carrots, roast onions, buttery mash, cauliflower cheese and huge Yorkshire puddings! Suffice to say, everyone was very full when they had finished eating!
We cannot thank the staff at the Toby Carvery for their hospitality and generosity. We all felt very welcome and had a wonderful time.
