For children stuck indoors, books are a great escape — so we’re delighted to share an activity pack for pupils based on excerpts from the bestselling book ‘The Shed That Fed A Million Children’, written by our founder Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow. Download this activity pack here.
Through these stories, your pupils can travel with Magnus from the Highlands of Scotland to the heart of Africa, where they will meet some of the people who inspired our work to feed hungry children in schools. We’ve included questions alongside each passage, encouraging pupils to think about the lives of children around the world. We hope you enjoy sharing this resource with the children you teach. Why not tag us on social media, using @marysmeals, to let us know how they get on? We can also send you films of Magnus reading these excerpts to share with your class — please get in touch to request these.
