Factory Fun.


Over the last couple of days we were lucky enough in year 5 to visit a local Hampshire business, Jude’s Ice cream in Twford. 5FL were the first to experience the joys of the Jude factory (on Tuesday), followed by 5BK (on Wednesday).

While there we met Jude herself and her husband (the businesses founder), we received a detailed talk on how the business started (back in 2002 in their family barn) to the production line today thirteen years later in the factory. In small groups we experienced a tour to observe the factory in action, meet some of the workers and learn about the business process.

We were also fortunate enough to have a taste of the yummy flavours being produced at several points in the ice cream making process. It was a fantastic day out with lots learnt, thank you again to everyone at Jude’s for making us feel so welcome and teaching us so much.

Once again I want to say a big thank you to year 5 for letting me join you on these trips. What a great time we had. Theo and Jude were so friendly and made us so welcome. Also, your behaviour, interest and knowledge made me so proud to be a part of your team. Big thanks to all the staff at Oakwood for their hard work beforehand so that we had great visit.
