Agriculture News

The Red Gate Farm students have been excitedly waiting for the arrival of our newest members, Gussy (black) and Boots (grey). The young goats will be used to teach animal husbandry skills to the students allowing them to have a hands on experience. Both goats are desexed and will become permanent members of our growing menagerie of small farm animals once they are a bit bigger. At present the goats move between the school during the day and Mrs Mullins property at night. The students have been teaching the goats to walk on a lead to enable them to move the animals safely around the school and provide the goats with some sensory stimulation when visiting other areas within our boundary. I will keep you updated with their progress over the coming term.
