Our 'Dairy Farm' Visit

Yesterday, Thursday 23rd of September, we visited a farm in Riponui.  Brad and the team of workers showed us around their 310 hectare farm where they milk 900 cows.  The children and parents/caregivers all enjoyed the experience.  The highlight of the day was witnessing a cow calve.  The children also experienced feeding calves, watching a cow being milked (and pooing), feeding out, riding on the back of a trailer, smelling silage and maize, and playing in the mud.  A special thanks to the Robert's family for the day.  Enjoy the photos.
