Model Farms

We spent a month creating our own model farms 

We made barns to hold hay.

We made food troughs


Some of our farms had  a stearm going through them
We created paddocks with fences 

We had chickens on our farms 

We invited other classes to view our farms. 




We knew animals needed water so we made water troughs.




We learnt how to draw many different farm animals.

Ambury Farm

                                    We had a real hands on day at Ambury Farm 
                          
                 We got to feed the chickens ..they pecked on our hands and it felt really ticklish


                                                The little lambs were so so friendly.



                                    The goats were pretty inquisitive and cheeky.

On Friday the  Medical Science Students from Auckland University introduced the children to some of  various instruments in an orchestra.  Please read some snippets of the children's response to the music.





The music was by Dvorak it was called New World. The music was exciting. Caleb
