Calf Day began in the days when agriculture dominated the New Zealand economy. Agriculture is still important, but no longer dominate. Many rural schools continue the tradition of calf day. Children at many rural schools look forward to calf day and to show off there often most prised possession. It is called calf day, but the children can bring any kind of animal that they have been caring for. Some of the most common animals are calves and lambs, but a wide variety of animals are brought to school--especially at elelementary school.
