What our friends say ....

I just want to thank you very much for the excellent webinar today. My 3rd and 4th really enjoyed it and learned so much from it. I've a few in my class who would go farming tomorrow if they could! Being from a farming background myself I appreciate the importance of education around farm safety. We used the work sheet afterwards. It was lovely to see the children (some of whom would usually be reluctant to speak up) so interested and participating so much in our discussion about all we saw and learned about safety on the farm.
