CASIC visits local primary school as part of science week
Emma was approached by the national charity Farming and Countryside Education (FACE) to be part of the school's science week, which this year focused on food. Much of the week's activities had focused on food production but during this particular session the children were asked to think about food consumption and the social and cultural factors that influence this.
Two year five classes took part and activities included reflections on the children's own food consumption practices and the creation of collages as means to discuss favourite meals.
There was also a great deal of debate as part of an exercise to sort various food items into 'ordinary food', 'special food' and 'food I would never eat'.
