Mr Weir who sells tractors to farmers.\u00a0 He brought a tractor for us to look at and we were amazed to find out the tractor cost \u00a377,000 and has 16 lights on it!<\/p>\n<p>Mr Cameron,\u00a0a vet showed us different equipment he uses when dealing with sick animals.\u00a0 He brought along a dog (just a cuddly one!) and showed us pictures of x-rays.\u00a0 We also saw photos of animals in the vets surgery.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs Nelson is a dairy farmer she talked to us about the journey milk takes from farm to fridge.\u00a0 We\u00a0talked about how many different things we eat daily which \u00a0are made from milk &#8211; chocolate and ice-cream being two of our favourites!<\/p>\n<p>It was super to find out about different aspects of each job and by the end we had lots of people wanting to be farmers and vets in the future (we still had a few footballers too though!)<\/p>\n<p><a
