What we'll do
We have lots of interactive fun with our animals and learn a lot about them, their care and welfare. We have a 17 acre farm to explore including our exciting woodlands where we can forage, do crafts and make lunch together over our campfire. We get to meet great new people and work as a team to achieve our goals set for the day. We can set up our own obstacle course which is fun and where we can take the ponies for their daily exercise alongside us. We can check the chickens and ducks for eggs , interact with the small animals and get to meet the meerkats. In the woods we get to build dens, find resources for crafts and look out for the wildlife that lives down there. We do have the ratios to accept some children who require 1:1 support, but there will be limited spaces available, A conversation will need to take place ahead of accepting any bookings to ensure we can meet need and support. We are unable to allow a personal assistant 1.1 support onto our farm due to our health and safety policies.
