Cemex Hatfield Concrete Plant & Quarry
Jays have been lucky enough to go on a trip to see a working quarry and find out what happens there. They observed the process of washing and separating of the different materials that were dug out from underneath the soil. An area that had been quarried was being returned to farm land as the soil was redistributed over the old dig site. This activity feeds into their History and Science curriculum by looking at changes over time and different materials and how they are used. We will be going to see an old quarry site that has become a nature reserve next week.
