Hatching chicks
A few Springs ago we truly experienced life in all its fullness, with the arrival of some eggs and a chicken brooder in the EYFS classrooms. After incubating for 21 days four of the eggs started breaking open, and some beautiful little chicks emerged.
The chicks ate and grew, and finally turned into grown up chickens. In the summer holidays they went off to new homes but hopefully remember their happy school days!
