the life of WOP(workplace oriention program)


WOP started on the 23rd of January. we went through a crash course of all the rules and how the farm works. we learn't about all the names that we had to know like the head departments and training mangers. we learn't all the different departments that are ran on Sondela for example life style center and resource guardianship. then we got split up into 3 group and i was placed into the 3rd group and then we started with our official WOP. We had to do 3 courses of which each took 2 days each. we started our first day by sitting the whole day in the class getting introduced to most the staff on the farm. then the next day we walked around the farm yard and learn't about important tree's,grass's and birds that are inhabited on the farm. then we experienced a basic fire fighting course and then were taught what would take place in the experience of a fire on the farm. then the last course we did was a first aid course which i think was the hardest out of all the courses. its been a little over a week and we have been hard at work ever since we arrived and the hours are long but im not scared....yet
