Ag Day Fun

Baby Ducklings visit Ruma Piwakawaka

On Ag day, our class mate Aston and his Mum, brought in his baby ducklings to show us.


We got to watch them have a bath in our sink, and then they had some food.

Do you know what they like to eat?  Soggy weetbix!! 
"One duckling kept stepping in the weetbix" said Anja.

Then we wrapped them in a towel to help them dry and we got to give them a cuddle.















"It is so fluffy, it feels like a soft pillow" said Charlotte.

"It felt warm" said Zach

"They have little wings" said Anja

"They are soft" said Tui

"They are cute, and they had pink beaks" said Mia

"I liked holding them, and one tickled me" said Sam

"They were so yellow" said Harry


Isla's calf at Ag day

Our class went out to the field to see the calves, lambs and goats that children had brought for Ag day.






Our class mate Isla was taking part in Ag day with her calf called 'Beauty".

She has spent weeks training her calf. Here is what Isla said she had to do to get Beauty ready for Ag day.
I had to make her go over wood and through zig-zags.
I had to lead her.
And take her over to her mother.
I had to feed her.
I had to clean her, and brush her.



Well done Isla!! 
We are very proud of you.
