From next week the ELC Fruit Shop will be open for business! Each Wednesday the children will be able to choose a fruit snack from our ‘shop’. This will provide opportunities to learn about fresh produce and to try fruit and vegetables they may not have tried before. You do not need to pack a fruit snack on Wednesdays however, if you have something growing in your garden, or you come across an unusual fruit that you would like to share, please feel free to bring it in.
