A walk to Papanui Veggie Fresh
Paula and Amy took a small group of children for a trip to the new Veggie shop in Papanui to collect fresh veggies for our meals for the week.
Before we left we made a list of what we needed for the week for our menu. Banana’s, watermelon and pineapple were on the top of the list. Amy brought her trolly from home for us to transport all the veggies back. Charlotte and Shelby thought a ride in the trolley would be easier than walking and loved singing our favourite preschool schools ABC and we will rock you. Once we got to the veggie shop the lovely shop assistant gave the children a banana so we sat down and talked about all the vegetables we could see and ate our bananas. We loved exploring the shop and looking at all the different fruits and vegetables. We are going to make this a weekly trip and take a different group of children each week.
It’s great to explore our community and support our local Veggie Fresh. The community is important to us here at BestStart Merivale.
A BIG thank you to our wonderful cook Paula for taking us on her weekly fruit and veggie shop! The children loved coming with you and we can’t wait to see what yummy dishes you will create with your large selection of vegetables and fruit.
