dd2 reception class are making and designing a fruit salad using different coloured fruit.They cut up lots of fruits and gave the children a taste of them all and then the children choose what they wanted in their own salad.DD has come home with a list saying i have to provide a portion each of fresh strawberries , blueberries,mango,pineapple,Kiwis and grapes .It has set me back £9.50 and I really object to buying fruit from Argentina , costa Rica ,Brazil,New zealand and Ecuador.
I never let my DC normally have stuff which has travelled so far .Shouldn't the school be encouraging kids to eat local, seasonal stuff ?
