Photo Gallery: Chickens at Sunrise!
Posted by AIU on 9/28/2022 11:00:00 AM
Last week was one for the books at Sunrise School! For weeks, students and staff eagerly awaited the arrival of the chicks, which have sat in home economics teacher Miss Jillian’s classroom in an incubator for several days. The hatchings were streamed live on YouTube across two days. In addition, they enjoyed the company of two resident hens in the Sunrise courtyard.
Students brainstormed names and, after a school-wide vote, named the outdoor chickens Princess Lay-a and Cheese Puff!
The chickens, from Rent The Chicken, will be on campus for a considerable portion of the 2022-23 school year. Their physical presence will play an important component of the home economics curriculum, including farm-to-table concepts, development and learning where chickens come from. In addition, students learn about responsibility by caring for and maintaining the chickens’ living quarters.
The hens are let out of their coop daily to roam freely around the courtyard. Throughout the day, students step out and interact with the hens, including feeding delivered by hand.
Check out some photos of students interacting with the chickens below!
