Chickens<br />
Sadly we say goodbye to our chicks!<br />
Each Kindergarten class has had ten healthy chicks chirping away each day in their classroom. By some<br />
statistical quirk, 5 black and 5 yellow chicks have hatched in each room.<br />
The children held them while they had a photo taken.<br />

Our Excursion to Calmsley Hill Farm<br />
Year 1 children visited Calmsley Hill City Farm. Here are some of their recounts of the day<br />
The other week,<br />
Year 1 went to<br />
Calmsley Hill Farm.<br />
When we got there,<br />
we had recess, then<br />
we had a tractor<br />
ride. I liked going<br />
up and down. We<br />
patted the animals<br />
and they were soft. Then we<br />
went to milk a cow. After lunch<br />
we saw whip cracking. It was<br />
loud! Then we saw Marly round<br />
up sheep. Last we saw sheep<br />
shearing. I really enjoyed the<br />
farm. Luke Laurikainen<br />
I went on a bus to the farm.<br />
First we had recess. After, we<br />
saw the farmers and a rabbit<br />
and some sheep. Then we<br />
milked a cow and had lunch.<br />
After lunch we watched the<br />
whip show and the sheep dog<br />
show. Then we saw the sheep<br />
being sheared. I had a good<br />
day! Dimitri Augerinos<br />
Year 1 went<br />
to the farm.<br />
When we got<br />
there we ate<br />
some food<br />
and went on<br />
a tractor ride<br />
and it was fun. The tractor<br />
ride was fast. Then we got<br />
to pat some animals and<br />
some of them were soft. We<br />
also got to milk a cow, which<br />
was fun. After lunch we saw<br />
three shows which were whip<br />
cracking, a sheep dog show<br />
and shearing of a sheep. I<br />
liked the farm. Jeremy Ko<br />
Year 1 went on a bus to go to the farm. First we had recess and then we saw a kitten and some chicks, goats and<br />
sheep. Then we saw a cow and some pigs. I like the tractor ride the best. We had lunch and then we saw the<br />
whip cracking show and Marly the dog rounded up sheep. The lady sheared a sheep for us. That was the best<br />
day ever. Rachel Clayton
