Field Trip to The Gentle Barn
On Tuesday, May 9, twenty of our iLEAD families attended a field trip to the Gentle Barn. The Gentle Barn takes care of neglected and abused animals, so our families were asked to HUG and brush the cows, feed carrots to the horses, hold the chickens, and pet the pigs, goats, sheep, and emu.
What an amazing experience it was for our families to be able to spend some precious, personal moments with these very gentle animals in need of love and attention! Our learners showed great compassion and sensitivity to the needs of these animals.
In the end, each one of our learners made a wish at the wishing well for what they believe could make our world a better and more loving place for animals, people and our environment. Thank you to all of of our families that showed up (we had 100 percent attendance!) to learn about and care for these special animals.
