Blackberry Picking

Today, our class enjoyed a lovely outdoor learning experience as we went blackberry picking in the school grounds. The children explored nature first-hand, carefully gathering the ripe, juicy berries while noticing the different textures, colours and smells all around them.

 

This activity is part of our preparation for writing sensory poems, inspired by Seamus Heaney’s famous poem Blackberry Picking. By engaging their senses outdoors, the children will be able to bring rich vocabulary, vivid imagery and personal experience into their creative writing.

Blackberry Jam

Today we enjoyed pancakes topped with blackberry jam, made from the berries we picked yesterday. They were absolutely delicious!
