World Milk Day
June 1st is World Milk Day.
All over the world people will be using today to think of and thank hard working dairy farmers all arund the globe, the organisations who provide dairy supplements to help tackle famine and malnutrition and the HUGE network of people who help us to enjoy milk.
Do you remember when we watched the video of William Whiskerson (the travelling mouse!) visiting London? Click on the link below to follow William on his journey to Somerset to find out the journey that milk makes to get from the farm to your fridge.
