On Tuesday Reception children went to Thornton hall Farm. The children got to meet, stroke and feed animals. First, we went on the coach, the children were very excited to be on such a 'big bus'. Then, we met the animals in the animal barn. Here we saw Emus, pigs, hens, goats, and horses. Next, we went on the caterpillar ride. The children asked farmer Sophie to drive 'fast'.  After that, it was time to go on a safari to see the deer, ducks, Ewe's, and lambs. The safari made all the children very hungry, and it was then time for lunch. We had lunch in the barn and warmed up from the wind and rain. It was then time to feed the lambs and calves.  We then got to feed the donkeys and goats and hold the rabbits and Guinea pigs. Finally, after such a wonderful day it was time to head back to school.
