"The Explorer" Year 5 taste fruit of the Rainforest!

As part of their Rainforest Topic, and to enhance their reading of our class text,"The Explorer", Year 5 enjoyed tasting a variety of fruit on Friday!  In the book, the characters have just discovered pineapples, after eating grubs to survive!  On offer were pineapples, blueberries, lychee, kiwi fruit and mango.  Most children tried them all and rated them, with a view to persuading others to eat them (or not!)   Even Mr Foley tried lychee for the very first time! He rated it 5/10!   Mrs Blomeley
