We would like to wish all of our
Valley supporters a very Merry Christmas!
The days leading up to Christmas
this year were hectic and hot, and some unexpected goodbyes have been tough on morale at
this time of year. As always, amongst the challenging times have shone some
very kind hearts, and a special thanks goes out to Yas and Jade for helping a
newborn lamb find safety late on Christmas Eve, while Mark collected a new
little ewe, Eve, from the pound. Little Eve is suspected to have fallen from a
sheep carrier and found herself living life roadside until captured. She’s
scared, skittish and currently quite inconsolable, but thankfully appears
uninjured. While Eve is still overwhelmed with all she’s been through, we hope
time and TLC will bring her comfort.

The Valley Volunteers |
Even with all the busyness this
time of year brings, we did manage to brave the hot conditions for a lovely
volunteer morning tea with Anne’s famous fruit mince pies and Helen’s cute
sugar sheep biscuits! Some of the flock got into the Christmas spirit, sporting
their little antlers, and Fiona kitten enjoyed her first Sanctuary Christmas
(especially the shiny baubles on the tree!).
