During our remote learning period we continued with a lot of theory work and our teachers tried to make it as much fun for us as they could. Coming back to school, though, has been great in subjects like Agriculture because we get to do things that are not possible on a computer.
In Year 10 Agriculture and Horticulture, we have learnt about goats and how they breed, we have also learnt about how they act throughout the day and what activities they get up to. A buck has recently been born, too. We have also learnt about sheep and have learnt how to crutch and drench them.
In our Agriculture classes, we have learnt about integrated pest management and the benefits of cultural and biological methods of control. We do this while maintaining the weeds in the vegetable gardens, vineyard and orchard. We like doing maths, calculating sulfur doses in the wine, and we like pruning the vineyard.
Why did the scarecrow get an award? For being outstanding in his field.
