Eeeek it’s happening!!! Our flock arrived today at our second site in Ewhurst.. ready for the opening of our Alternative Provision. They seem to be happy with their paddock with a view and soon children will be right there beside them — learning, exploring, and growing alongside nature.

We had so much fun at our holiday camps last week.. chicken cuddling, lamb feeding, pony grooming and making friends. Such a wondered cohort of children who all gained their certificates for the knowledge they learnt. Looking forward to next weeks camps ❤️

“Aaaaaahhhhhhh!” 😄🦷🐴

Today it was time for routine dental checks for two of our lovely ponies, Cisco and JCB.

Did you know that ponies’ teeth keep growing their whole lives (just like rabbits!)? Because of this, they sometimes get sharp edges that need to be gently rasped (filed) down so they can chew their food comfortably and stay happy and healthy.

Our brilliant vets came out to give them their check-ups. They’re always so knowledgeable, kind, and patient with our ponies – and the ponies were super stars today! ⭐

Fun pony facts for little animal lovers:
🐴 Ponies have 24 baby teeth and up to 44 adult teeth when fully grown!
🌾 Horses and ponies chew side to side, which helps grind grass and hay.
🦷 Regular dental checks help ponies eat better, feel better, and avoid sore mouths.

Cisco and JCB are now all sorted and ready to get back to doing what ponies do best — eating hay and enjoying cuddles! 💚
