Ag Day Training

Today we had some special visitors come to school to give us some advice on how to best prepare for Ag Day.

Mrs Lee and Daniel's lamb were first up:
Special woolly visitor - Daniel's lamb

Use a nice loud voice for Call, Follow, Run.
Make sure you pat your lamb on it's head.
Practise clipping the lead on after the Run.

Hold you lead just above the clip.

Walk with you lamb next to your shoulder.
If your lamb walks slowly, so do you.
Never pull your lamb along.

When you do your Stop count slowly to 3 before you continue walking.


Mr Kennedy and Madison's calf were next:

Our mooing visitor - Madison's beef breed calf

Regular grooming and cleaning are important.
Make sure your calf is relaxed being handled.

Calves do an obstacle course.
Make sure you can lead your calf across poles, mats
and weave in and out of poles.
