This year, we have introduced a new range of activities for the children to take part in during their time with us at Harlow Green, and one of them is to run a café.
In Year 4 we had our first experience of running Harlow Treats Afternoon Tea for parents and family members this week, and afterwards the children read out extracts from their short autobiographies that link to our English text – Usain Bolt.
Prior to the café, we had done a lot of work looking at the roles and jobs within the food industry and in hospitality, and the children worked hard to staff, serve and manage the café. We had done role plays in the class and activities around customer service and roles. We had discussed hygiene and handling money and change and potential issues that might arise. This helps the children look at future aspirations and links to our Possibilities and Communities drivers that underpin our teaching at school. We hope you enjoyed your visit and the English readings too.
The children came out desperate to do it again!
