Poultry in motion for Priory pupils

Pupils at The Priory School have been learning about chickens.

They enjoyed a jam-packed day recently learning about the science of eggs, farming poultry and birds within the countryside with Kids Country’s ‘Happy Chicks Day’ event.

It’s delivered into schools, in partnership with sponsors Central England Co-operative and the Happy Chicks Company.

Lesley Perry, teacher at The Priory School, Spalding, said: “The children all really enjoyed the day, especially making the mini quiches with the donated eggs and being able to take their recipes home.

“We have hens at school so we have been able to use our new found knowledge of different chicken breeds to go out and identify our hens.”
