Varndean Goats

Varndean School's 5 resident pygmy goats. Occasionally irreverent, usually outspoken. We're passionate about animal therapy, outdoor learning & carrots

Camera shy? Not likely.
Trouble is... out here on the farm, there is hay and there are logs and there's lots of space... but the phone signal is patchy!

Goat update! Our lovely @varndeangoats are still happier than ever on their holiday to @Fccrifeway, with all the hay they could possibly eat and all the logs in the world to scratch on. And definitely still not camera shy!

The observant humans amongst you may have noticed that we are away from @VarndeanSchool at the moment.
We literally have the builders in (see below)
We'll be on retreat at @Fccrifeway until September.
So if we seem a bit quiet, we'll probably be rolling in the hay!

[Varndean Goats @varndeangoats]

Now that #lockdown is easing, we thought 'let's go on a retreat!'
This is us for a little while.
Lazing in the sun, lounging by the rocks, having a little #chillax

We'll keep you posted. 🐐😉

"Lads! If I remember right, according to Vygoatsky, we should be able to use that scaffolding to get to our ZPD!"

"Great! What's a ZPD?"

"Zone of Perpetual Dinner...I think... something like that anyway!

The trees are okay but it's their sandwiches we've got our eyes on. 🥪👀

[Varndean School @VarndeanSchool]

Though they might be giving their home a bit of a makeover, our @varndeangoats are definitely enjoying the trees that the builders are cutting down - perfect for a nibble and a head scratch!

[Varndean Goats @varndeangoats]

@kennygfrederick Innit though?

WB Yeats said "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire".
This is just as well because our pail appears empty but we have stacks of firewood!

Happy St Patrick's Day! ☘🇮🇪
