Enjoyable small NZ Experience.

My purpose for attending the sheep show was to expose my Japanese student and youngest grandchild to a glimpse of what working with sheep looks like. The young woman who led the show was very welcoming and inclusive and obviously had a passion for the dogs she worked with. I enjoyed learning about the charitable trust also. The Japanese student enjoyed cuddling and feeding the lambs. She also was very interested in the different types of wool on display. My grand daughter is getting a lamb to raise for her school agricultural day in August. She learnt a lot about feeding lambs so I feel she is better prepared to take care of her lamb. She is very excited. We deiced to buy some souvenirs and eat at the cafe to support the trust. Keep doing the great work you do.

Love sheep world!

I have taken several groups of international students to sheep world and they always love it! It is a good mix of educational and hands on interaction with the animals.

Sharing show

Love Why they do it however there was not enough seating to sit with my baby and people having to stand otherwise was ok. I would probably just feed animals next time but good for tourists rather than locals.

Sheep World is a must

We had a blast! 2 and 5 years olds thoroughly enjoyed petting and feed the animals, specially the free range tea cup peg. The shearing show was informative and impressive. Coffee did a great coffee and lunch. We are spreading the word to friends and family and will be back ourselves one day on the near future.
