When the children went to Shearers on Wednesday they had a shopping list of local food to find for their picnic on Friday.  They all saw lots and lots of really lovely local food.  It made them feel quite hungry.  The children all used lovely manners in the shop and were able to find all items on their shopping lists. 
Primary 3 visited Shearers on Wednesday morning to find local food for their Picnic.  They saw lots of local vegetables outside the shop.  They bought some carrots because they all LOVE carrot sticks.  Primary 3 all know that carrots are full of Vitamins!
The boys and girls in Primary 3 had been learning in class how to cross at a Zebra crossing in preparation for their trip to Shearers.  On the day of the trip they were all very sensible and paid lots of attetnion to everything that was going on around them before stepping onto the road.  Well done Primary 3!
