Reception went on our first school trip to Lea Valley Farm! After a thrilling coach journey which involved a lot of “this is the way to my house,” we arrived at the farm and our willing parent helpers. We had a quick look at the animals before heading off on our tractor ride to the milking area of the farm. There were lots cows of different ages and being able to see how they grow was a wonderful experience for the boys. We got to see the milking parlor and the many cows they use to make the milk.

Next came the most important part of the trip to the boys; lunch and a play in the adventure area. Following lunch we were able to have a more indepth look at all the different animals and even feed some of them.

The boys had such a magical day at the farm and both myself, the Reception staff and the boys are very grateful to our parent volunteers for being so helpful and a valuable asset to our trip.
