The Farm goes to school

Create an unforgettable experience by transforming your playground into a farm for the day! 

 

We come with full risk assessments, insurance, flexible timetables and resources to make the visit as easy as possible for you. 

​

From nursery age to secondary school and beyond, we aim to offer the perfect package tailored to your requirements. 

Whether it is to support well-being and offer therapeutic visits or expand learning, we can match our farm visit to your needs and facilities. 

Providing curriculum lead activities 

​ 

Alongside a farm set-up that is appropriate for the setting, in consultation with the school, we can provide resources to align with the national curriculum, including take-home materials to enable the children to share their learning.  

Resources might relate to animal knowledge to enhance the exploration and identification of animals, to life-cycle experiences such as egg to chick to hen, to helping understand the role of the farm and connecting more clearly with the production of food and animal welfare issues. 

 

​

Well-being and Encounter activities 

There are many times in school were well-being is an important factor, such as preparing for SATS and exams.  We can bring the farm in to focus on well-being in the following ways;

​ 

  • 1-1 animal encounter for specific children 

  • A single animal for a small group 

  • A mix of small animals for a class experience 

  • A small farm set up with more emphasis on ‘hands-on’ encounter 

We had an unforgettable visit from The Good Day Farm!

Every class, from our littlest learners in Reception all the way up to Year 6, got to enjoy this special whole-school experience. The children were absolutely thrilled to meet and interact with a variety of friendly animals, some for the very first time!

Each session was thoughtfully tailored to suit the needs of every year group, ensuring that all the children were fully engaged and having fun. The joy, curiosity, and laughter could be felt throughout the day, not just from the students, but from the staff too!

It was a heartwarming and memorable day for everyone involved, and one we’ll be talking about for a long time to come.
