Our chickens are looking for carers during the holiday. If you are able to help out during the holiday break the girls would love your company. Alternatively, if anyone has an empty chicken coop at home and would like 3 egg-laying guests for the holiday break, please let Mrs Crouch know.

Please contact Mrs Crouch via email: sherryl.crouch@education.wa.edu.au if you are able to offer your help in any way.
