Kiwi Valley Farm Park

Today, Room 9 had a fantastic trip to Kiwi Valley Farm Park. 

Farmer Chloe welcomed us to the Park and taught us about her job as a Farmer.

Then we were off for a tractor ride. We spotted a nanny goat, a billy goat, some horses and a donkey.
             

Next we were lucky enough to feed some animals. We started off with ducks, geese and a beautiful peacock. We learnt that it is the boy peacocks that have the amazing tails.
        

        

Each of us were given a bag of food. We were allowed to feed any animals, except the pigs. We kept our hands flat and they animals nibbled the food from us. We fed sheep, lambs, alpacas, donkeys and goats.
   
   

Next we all got to have a pony ride. Liam got today's bravery award for riding the horse even when he was scared. Awesome Committment Liam!
 

The favourite activity for many of us was visiting the nursery where we were allowed to cuddle different baby animals. 

Georgia is cuddling a 4 day old baby pig and Loren is holding a soft rabbit. Jacob held a young chick while Ethan gets to know a rat.


Liam has help holding a small guinea pig.
We loved our day at Kiwi Valley. A huge thank you to our parent helpers. We couldn't do it without you.
