Pamu farm reflection writing

On Wednesday we learnt about farm safety by visiting a Puma farm.

As we arrived at the Pamu farm company the bitter tangy scent of cow dung erupted into our \
noses. We were led into the office after cleaning our gumboots so that the cows didn’t catch
mycoplasma bovis which is a deadly cow disease. Our class was sat down at a long wooden
table inside the office building. We then listened to a long talk about farm safety, lead by
Cameron the business manager for Pamu. We learnt that it had changed over the years. We
were then driven to the cowshed in the cars that we arrived in. We went for a tour of the
cowshed and learnt about even more farm safety, such as all the safety precautions on the
milking station and safety around the chemicals. We learnt that every cow had a tracker and
when it went give provide milk it would show all the information about the cow on a big screen.
Next we were shown to the cute little calves. After that we left the moist air and farmy aroma
and returned to school.
