In the first week of Block 7 Year 2 went away on their first residential trip with the school. Ms Van Zielst and Mrs. Lagrue planned a very special trip as a significant part of the Year 2 Green Fingers Topic. Grad Prestranek, an equestrian centre with 30 Icelandic horses, is surrounded by meadows and has its own cave, Ovcja jama. The children had a very exciting time, fulfilling dreams by spending an afternoon in the stables learning how to groom their ponies before going on to ride them. Throughout the two days they learnt how to ride and take care of farm animals in an eco farm, where they met and petted calves a few days old.
