EYFS Enjoys a Memorable Visit from Little Barn Mobile Farm

Last week, EYFS enjoyed a delightful visit from Little Barn Mobile Farm. The children had the unique opportunity to bottle-feed two adorable baby lambs and a calf, creating lasting memories. They also met ‘Nacho,’ the sheep, and took him for a walk, which was a definite highlight for all. The children demonstrated excellent turn-taking and patience while stroking the rabbits and a friendly duck. One of the most amusing moments of the day was watching the duck enjoy a refreshing bath in the paddling pool.

It was a fantastic learning experience that allowed the children to connect with animals, practice their social skills, and have fun outdoors!
