This term in grade 3/4 the students will be exploring the Paddock-to-Plate concept. To kick start our new Inquiry unit, we had an incursion with Excited 4 Careers in Agriculture. The students enjoyed learning about Dairy farms and all the interesting careers involved in Dairy farming. The students participated in activities such as testing the quality of certain types of milk, learning about the different types of Dairy cows and products, and to top off the day, we travelled to a nearby Dairy farm in Westbury.  There the students learnt about how the cows were milked using state of the art technology! 

Ellie - I like giving out the bickies and cheese to everyone

Lexi - I liked making the milk bottles and watching the cows getting milked.

Harry - I liked testing the milk.

Archie - I like the ‘cheeky’ grain.
