February 3rd was indeed an interesting
day filled with excitement and wonder as children of Grade I were taken to a
farm to see Emu and Ostrich birds. They were taken for a nature walk in the
fields and squealed with excitement when they spotted colorful butterflies all
around them. We walked along singing “Old
Mac Donald had a Farm”.
They also saw Kingfisher birds and Cranes flying.
Buffaloes were found grazing. After the nature walk, children walked
into the farm and their excitement knew no bounds when they saw Emu and Ostrich
birds prancing around. The Emu birds were as curious as our little ones and
were eyeing us with curiosity.
Children saw the food which was being fed to the
birds. They also saw Hens all around the farm and a dog (St. Bernard breed)
which guards the farm and were fascinated with its huge size. On their way out,
children collected feathers of Emus and Hens as memoirs. This visit to the farm
will be etched in their young minds forever.
