Bitter Sweet days 🥚 🐣🐥

My first Fledgling has flown the nest…. 😢🤩
And I’m feeling quite emotional about it. My little fledgling was on a 9 week placement which literally flew by! He was my first short term
And youngest pupil who introduced me to strawberry milkshake in your cup of tea! ☕️ 🍓

Over these 9 weeks, I’ve been working closely one-to-one with this young person. We’ve used the animals to foster calm interactions and develop emotional awareness. Together, we’ve practiced self-regulation, understanding how to stay calm even when things get tricky. We’ve been building interaction skills to help with classmates and preparing for a positive step into a new school. It’s been such a journey, and though I’ll miss them, I know they’re ready to take these skills with them!

This young person even gained an ASDAN life skills certificate in Caring for Hens. 🐓 💓 Thanks for my gifts especially my friendship bracelet 🙏

Half term may be here but we are still sheeping!!

Shetland sheep are so much fun, all sheep are so much fun, but they don’t stay this boingy forever. They love playtime with their humans and they love a game of hide and seek! 👀

Here are our two beautifully friendly Shetland sheep Timmy and Willow going for a stroll around the farm.

They have the best temperament and are full of fun and bounce.. lots and lots of bounce!

If you sit in with them long enough they’ll soon settle down on you for a cuddle. They make the best listening friends 💕

Our hens have the best free range life! But you must ensure they have hiding places… they only feel content when they know they are safe.

With lots of hiding places on the farm our girls our super content and lay Eggcelent eggs in return 😊
