Kindergarten Excursion to the Farm

Kindergarten students at Calmsley Hill City Farm

On Monday, 3 September our Kindergarten students boarded the bus bound for Calmsley Hill City Farm. The students were extremely excited to see the animals at the farm but the bus trip was just as exciting. When we arrived at the farm, we had recess and were quickly ready to explore the farm. There were so many animals to see and opportunities to interact with them. Everyone got to milk the cow and have a ride on the tractor. After lunch, we watched a whip cracking show and some students even got to have a turn of the whip! Then we saw a sheep shearing show and got to see a working dog round up the sheep. We left the farm exhausted from all the fun and arrived back at school just before the bell. A big thanks to the parent volunteered that came along on the day and the students should be congratulated for their outstanding behaviour, demonstrating their safe, responsible, respectful and excellent learner manners.
