Apple Pressing Day

Our Apple Day is proving to be very popular. I work with my wife, Elaine. This would be based upon 3 classes – 90 children with the help of some volunteer parents/governors to help with the cutting. Firstly we ask the school in advance to get the children and families to bring in some apples. It is very important that as a family the apples are actually picked from family and friends trees, ideally half a dozen apples each child. Seasonal appreciation is far richer than queuing in a supermarket! Linking in with mathematics we encourage the children to weigh/estimate the apples at the start before they get chopped and turned into juice and then weigh the end results of juice and pulp too. Also turning the juice into frozen ice lollies to be eaten that day – demonstrating the science link of reversal/irreversible change. Approximate apples needed would be between 220 – 250 lbs (100 – 110 kgs).
The price includes the Apple press and crusher, chopping boards, knives etc, apple twisters, ice lolly containers, back up apples and enough fresh juice for every class to have a jug (depending on size of school).

Mileage to be added at W.S.C.C. rate.
We can provide local apples pre-washed @ 40p per pound or 90p per kg.
