Our Grade 4 learners had a fantastic day out at Fourfeet Farm, where they got to experience the world of commercial farming first-hand! They learned all about cattle, chickens, and sugar cane, and even tried their hand at harvesting fresh radishes and turnips.

One of the highlights of the trip was riding on the back of the farm truck and meeting the calves up close .

The learners were fascinated to see how a real working farm operates and left with a greater appreciation for where our food comes from.

A heartfelt thank you to Fourfeet Farm for welcoming us so warmly and giving our Grade 4s such a memorable experience!

Despite the rainy weather on Wednesday, our German Exchange fundraising morning walk went ahead as planned . Warm breakfast rolls and hot coffee were on sale to keep everyone going .

A huge thank you to everyone who braved the weather and joined us, and congratulations to Mrs Rencken, Mrs Meyer, and the German Exchange group for hosting such a successful event!
