We have been learning all about the farm including animals and their young, how to look after plants and where our food comes from. To support our learning we visited Smithills Open Farm. 

The children had a wonderful day! They experienced a bumby tractor ride where the could feed some bread to the hungry donkeys and rode on a donkey too. We then watched the cows being milk and listened to the farmer as he explained how to care for the cows udders and what happens to the milk once it is collected. 

We visited pets corner where we held baby chicks and rabbits, and were able to stroke goats, lambs, alpacas and a donkey. 

What a wonderful day!
