The students followed the journey of milk from the grazing cows in the meadows to the high-tech milking parlour, learning exactly how fresh dairy makes its way to their breakfast tables.

It was a muddy, hands-on adventure that turned theoretical lessons into a sensory experience—complete with the sounds of the herd and the smell of fresh silage. By meeting the farmers and the animals, the children gained a newfound appreciation for the hard work involved in producing the food they eat every day.
