In our school we have extremely kind and helpful parents. William kindly offered to bring along a tractor to school for our children to have a look at. The children were filled with excitement as they saw the red Massey sitting in the car park. William carefully explained to the children, the various parts on a tractor and their purposes. You could tell the children were fascinated as their eyes were fixed on William, listening carefully to the information. Lots of our children come from farming backgrounds, they were able to share their own knowledge and experiences.
We left knowing some interesting facts
- the tractor has 100horsepower
- it runs on diesel
- their is a dipstick to check the oil level
- you can find a toolbox on the front
- the engine is at the front
- the exhaust runs up to the side of the window
- you can attach a link box at the back of the tractor
Each of the children then got a chance to climb up into the tractor and have a look around, there was a lot of excitement to say the least!
A huge thanks to William for taking the time to provide such a fantastic experience for the children in our school!
