What a day we had at Countryside Days at Harrogate Showground! This is always such an exciting, jam-packed day with so many activities that link to our curriculum. Our group’s activities included: trying out cycling on a range of different bikes; weaving with willow to create a natural wreath; exploring 3D nets and the use of leather to create a bag and learning about different cattle and what they produce in Britain. We also ended the day with the legendary sheep shearing, which was entertaining and taught us lots of facts about the British Empire’s relationship with wool trading. The weather was glorious and, as you can see, some hill-rolling was essential. All of us in Year 4 believe Countryside Days is a valuable day that builds cultural capital.
