The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair

Friday November 13 was a lucky day for us! We went to the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair! We got there at about 9:30 in the morning. We watched the Super-Dogs perform, cows being milked and cows and horses being judged. We listened to different experts teach us about everything from farming to energy conservation; we answered questions and picked up colouring books and fridge magnets. We tasted different food and drink, we felt skins, feathers, fur and more. We smelled food and animals. We heard the sheep bleat and the cows moo. At one point we saw a nervous horse and heard it snort and whinny in a way that made us all a little bit afraid! It was a wonderful day. Have a look at some of our photos!

The Junior Room Learns About Snakes

We all touched a live snake; it felt smooth, dry and warm!!

Alisha even enjoyed holding the snake by herself.

We learned that some snakes are in danger of becoming extinct
