Today Farmer Mick from Farmyard on Wheels visited Pre Kindy. We learnt about some animals that live on the farm, some special features they have and noises they make. We had so much fun touching the animals to see what they feel like and enjoyed feeding the piglets, goats and lambs. It was lots of fun!
