Please be sure to bring your waterproof jacket, like you did for school camp in Dunedin.
Please wear gumboots or shoes that can get muddy and bring a plastic bag to put these in before we get back on the bus. Bring another pair of shoes in your back pack to wear on the bus home.
Today we identified the safety issues of a visit like this: electric fences, machinery, water, the animals and behaving responsibly.
We know that we have been shared amongst the groups so that we can be role models and help with the group, as we are able to self manage our behaviour by:
- staying close to the parent looking after us and doing as they say
- staying well back from electric fences
- listening carefully to the people in charge at the farm and following their instructions
- wearing our hi-viz jackets so that we are visible
- moving quietly from place to place so as not to 'spook' the cows
- asking questions and listening to other people's questions
We have a large number of questions on our KWL (What we Know, What we Want to find out, and What we Learned.) Looking forward to a great learning experience as we see first hand where our milk comes from for so many of out food products.
