We saw alpacas, cows, chickens, rabbits, and we even had a chance to pet them!
Look at us feeding alpacas:
Alpaca kisses were optional and it looks like somebody at the back wanted a kiss too...
Us with the cows and the calves, the youngest was 2 days old! Lucky us.
Have you ever held a chicken? We did. We found fresh eggs too.
Rabbits can be pets too... Have a loot at the cute, little babies.
Tractor... Not an animal, but a part of a farm. The best farmers ever let us drive it!
Nothing is better than team work. Driving a plastic tractor with my friend was a lot of fun.
Here us learning about growing vegetables.
Nature= wildness, so we also had a chance to be ourselves, meaning... curious and a little wild :)
We met two friendly dogs living on the farm: a giant dog named Vanilla and Nanook, who wasn't the size of a Polar Bear. Looks like they both like to ride the bus...

Kwänlin Dän First Nation Fire Pit Area
KDFN Fire Pit Area. In Social Studies, we learn about our local environment and resources from the land. We collected 'Spruce Pitch' to make a traditional medicine for cuts and burns. We made our own fire too!
Walk to McIntyre Creek with Mr. Jewells
We had a ton of fun going to the Creek! We only wished that more students were at school today :( We only had 10 students!
Learning about the life cycling of water bugs that turn into flying insects and hatch their eggs in the water once again.
We were very luck to catch a small fish - we actually got 2! Plus many other water bugs.
Along the way we each had cards to explore how to use plants, seeds, and leaves from the environment to make different colours.
