I love picnics - I love the process of opening all the little pots and silver foils packages and finding out whats inside, seeing the kids get all excited at the sight of a sarnie - makes me giggle. We all, as in most of the school children and some of the parents sat at tables in the school hall. Most people had packed lunches and some had ordered in picnic from the school kitchen.
It was great fun, all the kids reaching over grabbing handfuls of fruit and mini muffins. DS3 had twice the amount he would normally eat so its a great way of getting food into the little fussy eater that he is!! He even tried raisins and didn't choke which is what he thinks is going to happen if he tries something new!!
Afterwards, DS2 had the opportunity to show is a PowerPoint presentation he's been working on with a group of kids. I thought it was brilliant, full of action and interest but best of all it was lovely for the school to involve the parents via the picnic. There was a friendly atmosphere and the staff were excellent and well organised. Well done The Meadows Primary!!
