School pets

We are excited to announce our four new additions to our school.

Meet Babs, Ginger, Bunty and Fowler.

 

They are our lovely rescue chickens. They have spent the last few months adjusting to lots of new faces and to school life. They have been busy regrowing their feathers, enjoying their food and spending time exploring Mrs Ward's garden and their enclosure in school. 

They were adopted from 'Fresh start for hens' who are a charity that provide safe and loving homes for hens who are no longer needed by commercial farms.

They help to teach our children kindness, empathy and understanding as they navigate how to care for an animal. Our children love to visit our chickens.
