A Farm-Tastic Adventure at the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum 

Our Developmental Education classes had an absolutely wonderful day exploring the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum recently! The sun was shining, and the barns were bustling with excitement.

Here are a few highlights from our busy day on the farm:

• We got up close and personal with some magnificent, gentle horses, but it was the cows that truly stole the show and became an instant class favorite! 

• We were incredibly lucky to visit during such a special time—the students were thrilled to see so many adorable baby animals that had just been born.

• Inside the barns, our students turned into true explorers. We used our senses to touch and feel real wool, learning all about where our cozy clothes come from.

• We wrapped up our tour by checking in on the clucking chickens and loud roosters, who seemed just as excited to see us as we were to see them!

Days like this offer such valuable, hands-on sensory learning experiences for our students. A huge thank you to our wonderful staff who helped make this trip safe, educational, and so much fun.

Congratulations 

Congratulations to Mme Lescarbeau's Grade 4 class who won the surprise Ice Cream Sundae party for donating the most items to our annual Barrhaven Food Cupboard Drive last month. Bravo! Excellent! Thank you to the Gr. 6 students who helped prepare and hand out the delicious sundaes : )
