Visit with Vegas & Tyde

We had two special guests at Galatas School today - Vegas and Tyde! Our second grade teacher, Mrs. Hughes, brought her horses to school today to visit us. We listened carefully as Mrs. Hughes explained how to feed, groom, and care for the horses.

Mrs. Hughes even showed us how to clean the Tyde's hooves!

After Mrs. Hughes shared about how to take care of Vegas and Tyde, we were able to pet them! These are our classmates with Vegas:

Rip Roarin' Rodeo!

Our Kindergarten rodeo was an enormous success and all of the cowboy and cowgirls had a boot scootin' good time! Please enjoy some of the photos I took during the rodeo:

We pledged to the American and Texas flags, just like they do in real rodeos.

We performed two songs and the ever-popular Chicken Dance!

The classes competed in three events: the stick horse relay race, the barrel race, and the chuck wagon race.

Bates Bandits

My sweet kindergarten class has turned into cowboy and cowgirl bandits! Beware of these dangerous outlaws and report sightings to Sheriff Lindsay at Galatas School!
