Pihitia Station

 Room one travelled to Pihitia Station with Moana Syndicate at the end of last term. 

We worked our way around a series of rotations and learnt about how technology helps on farms in the 21st century. We started by learning about pest control before splitting into smaller groups. We milked a cow and watched a butcher but up lamb. Norm showed us his drone and motor bikes while we helped Demelza muster a paddock and chase the sheep into the sheep yards. Lastly, we watched Nic shear a sheep and talked about the importance of wool. 

Thank you so much to the Williams family for having us and all the other families who came and helped.
