On Monday 7th October, the year 1 children were lucky enough to have a visit from Ian at Wycomb Mobile Petting Farm. Ian brought with him some familiar animals who came to school last year like Thumbelina the Shetland Pony, bandit the ferret as well as guinea pigs and rabbits. (Chocolate) Buttons the poodle also returned and this year enjoyed listening in on Mrs Morton’s register at the start of the day too.
In science, the children have been learning about grouping and classifying animals as well as identifying their body parts. The children are also going to use this visit to write some sentences about facts they have learnt and what their favourite animal was.
Connie said, ‘It was the best day ever! I loved all of the animals.’
Wyatt said, ‘I loved taking the pony for a walk!”
‘I want the farm to come every day,’ Ella said!
