them. There were race horses and they were friendly . The Aunty in the farm gave
2 instructions . Before we touched the horses we should allow the horses to
smell our hand . we should not stand behind the horses because it will kick .
Omega is different from other horses .Omega is gray in colour other horses are
brown in colour .Omega is tall when compared to other horses.
Then we went to organic farm . There they were growing chilli, bitter gourd,

MY TRIP TO THE FARM
- Shriya Mahamkali
On Wednesday morning, I went to the Farm with MIRRA. I was very excited about
it. Mummy and I reached Mirra early. Haritha, Arpith, Rishi, Ethan, Viswanath,
Anya came with their mothers but Srividya came straight to the farm by car with
her mother and younger sister.
Everybody got into the bus. I sat in the first seat next to Rishi. It was a AC bus.
We reached the Farm . It is a natural place with farm animals. They were growing
fruits, vegetables in the farm. There was a lake also there in the farm.
First we saw Turkey, Hens, and Chicks. I fed rice grains to the chicks with Mahima.
Hens and chicks pecked the rice grains, very fast. An uncle working in the farm,
washed the cows with hosepipe. There was 1 black cow and 1 white and black
cow. There were 3 goats tied up and they were eating leaves of the plant. The
goats were new to the farm.
Then we went to see horses, lived in a shed. There were 5 horses. I fed grass one
by one to the horses. My favourite horse was Omega which was grey in colour. It
was beautiful and tall. It was the youngest in the farm. A lady working in the farm
gave us 2 instructions : Allow the horse to smell your hand before feeding it and
don’t stand behind a horse , it will kick.
After seeing horses, we took a break. I ate biscuits and drank fresh water melon
juice and others ate laddu, murukku and juicy pineapple. Lakshmi aunty, Durga
aunty, Amma, Mahaima, Saritha aunty, Divyatha aunty, Rishi, Viswanath, Arpith,
his mother and I , we all played hide and seek. we all hid in different places like
behind the trees, wall, net etc., . We all had lots of fun.
We went to the lake which was very far . It was very tiring. It was a big lake. A
bull was relaxing in the lake. The lake was dirty.
After that we were hungry and it was lunch time. Haritha, Srividya and I baked
Pizzas. I put sweetcorn, green peppers, tomatoes and onion toppings in my pizza.
I ate a veg pizza. Others ate tamarind rice and curd rice with potato chips. After
lunch, I went with Mahima to the play area. We played on the swing. I was sitting
on the swing and Mahima pushed the swing. I liked the swing very much. Haritha
also came to swing with us. But she was scared to go fast on the swing.
We got into the bus and went for a long ride. We saw satish uncle’s house and
Mallika aunty’s house on the way. We came back to Mirra in the evening at 5. I
loved my trip.
