THANK YOU, Harry!

Posted: Oct 31, 2023 by: Tara (Tara) on: Forest Blog

A few weeks ago Harry (Quinn and Mack’s dad) asked whether we’d like some apples from his family’s orchard.

We were thrilled.

Out came the traditional apple press.

The children learnt how to cut apples, using the bridge and claw technique, learnt how to use the blender, apple slicer and the press.

Those 3 crates of apples produced 29 litres of juice! Harvey summed it up, “ I loved it! I wish we could do this every day! I loved slicing the apples and pressing them but most of all I loved drinking the delicious juice.”

We spoke about how different the juice is in shops and why.

Thank you, Harry!

Zoha: We did baking today and created some apple crumble. We used different techniques for tasks, like the bridge and claw cut when cutting with a knife.

Indi: I learnt how a blender works and how to use the apple press.
