Willow Bank pupils recently had the opportunity to learn about, understand and engage with animals from Bowland Farm's mobile farm. The farmer brought a selection of lambs, pigmy goats, chickens, ducks and two alpacas!

In the Genetics and Evolution topic studied at KS3, pupils learn about variations within a species. Pupils spoke with the farmer about the adaptations of the alpacas, and how having thick fleece helps them to keep warm in cold temperatures and keep cool in hot weather.
