Hatching our very own chicks

​Nursery class have been very busy over the past two week hatching our very own chicks! The children thoroughly enjoyed observing the eggs in their incubator.  We waited in suspense for two days before the first chick hatched out of it’s egg. In total, we were lucky enough to have all ten of our chicks hatch. The children we able to help care for the chicks; changing their bedding, feeding them and giving them fresh water. We learnt how to handle the chicks carefully and safely and we all had a turn at holding the chicks.
