Our trip to the Auction Mart

On Monday we went to Orkney Auction Mart with our friends from Class 2T.  It was a long walk but we all did really well.  On the way we saw boats coming into the pier and baby lambs in the fields.
 
 
First we went to the balcony to see the cattle that were for sale.  We asked lots of interesting questions about farming and farm animals.
 

Then we went to the ring to watch some of the cattle being sold.  The auctioneer talked really fast and we found it hard to understand what he was saying.  We all watched mezmorised!


 
 
 

Litter Survey at the Peedie Sea

Last Friday we went a walk around the paths at the Peedie Sea.  We were looking to see how much litter we could find. 
 


 
 Sadly, we found quite a lot of plastic and food packaging.  We decided we should go back and help clean up the area.  This will help the 'Pick Up 3 Pieces' campaign.
