Farm In The City

Assalamualaikum all!

On the 10th January 2017, our little pre-schoolers had the great opportunity to visit the Farm In The City - a petting zoo located in Seri Kembangan, Selangor. A total of 23 excited children went for the trip along with 7 chaperones.

The place is divided into several sections such as the Bird Aviary, Reptiles Cavern, and Fish Feeding to name a few. It is a great place for children to learn about different species of animals. The best part is that children can interact with the animals by petting, touching, and feeding them.

All aboard the bus! So excited :)

Nyum nyum nyum!

Pretty sure this fellow is feeling loved by the children <3

The children curious about the snakes and lizards, masyaallah.

Here's a question: is this a llama or an alpaca?

Masyallah, there was so much to learn, so many things to see. The trip was an excellent exposure for the children to nature and its wonders. It also kept the children happy and excited as they were able to learn outside of the classroom and had the chance to interact with so many animals!

A big thank you to all the chaperones for taking care of our little pre-schoolers. A big thank you also to the wonderful children - may you continue to have curiosity and the thirst to learn, inshaa Allah.

May Allah bless our efforts and deeds.
