“The 3/4s have been painting a cow this year that has machinery on it. We have had so much fun painting the cow, it’s name is Milky Way. All the 3/4s have voted on the name and combined the designs together and made the front of the cow and the back of the cow. The 3/4s have been painting the cow since the start of the TERM! We are having a fun time painting it. We will be adding details at the end of this week hopefully. It has been a great EXPERIENCE! We loved it and we hope that the 3/4s are having a great time”. - Lizzie & Ethan
Our 3/4 students’ Paddock to Plate unit has concluded with the production of our beautiful bovine, ‘Milky Way’. Dairy Australia’s ‘Picasso Cow’ competition encourages students to record their understanding of all things dairy on a lifesize fibreglass cow that is then decorated to depict either farm to plate or health and nutrition. To compliment her two existing herd mates the students chose the farm to plate option focussing on the technology and innovation that they discovered during their classroom investigations and excursions. A learning journal and powerpoint was supplied as our competition entry to demonstrate all the learning that took place over the term. Thank you to the many people who helped inspire and educate our students, Shannara Drake from Bunnings Warrnambool for supplying the paint, Ashley Cook, Shane Coates and Nathan Lawson from Timboon Motors for Milky’s protective spraypaint coat and Tania Ludders from Everycow for her cow collar. Congratulations to the Year 3/4 students and teachers, especially Mrs Hickman and Mrs Mackieson on our colourful cow. “The 3/4s have been painting a cow this year that has machinery on it.
