The chicks have sent us a postcard to say that they are having a great time at Ryan’s farm.
They have lost all of their fluffy feathers and now look more like adult chickens.
Thank you to Ryan and Ms Cunningham for looking after the chicks so well.

Nearly all of the chicks are hatched ,there are only 4 more eggs to hatch. Today we helped to clean the brooder and we held the chicks and they where chirping. They were very happy to see us and were comfortable enough to fall asleeep as we held them, a part from Allison’s who was a bit jumpy. We think they are very cute and fluffy.

Our chicks have arrived!
Our 11 chick eggs arrived safely yesterday and are currently snuggled up in their incubator at the front office.
The programme designed by Living Eggs (see www.livingeggs.co.uk for more information) aims to promote awe and wonder across the curriculum at all levels. Over the next two weeks the children from nursery to primary 7 will be learning about the life cycle of a chicken by a variety of class work and will provide the children an opportunity to see chicks actually hatching from their eggs.
By next week the chicks will be old enough to be held and handling sessions will be made available to children during school hours and to parents during Parents’ Evening. If you can’t wait until then, or you would like to follow the progress and watch the chicks hatch LIVE! a link is available through our Glow page. You will find a tab on the main page called “LIVE Chicken Hatching”.
We would like to thank the PTA for donating money to the school and making this exciting school project possible.
