Sustainable Spring Half-Term ’22

We are happy to announce that our Spring Half-Term Club is back! And it’s all based around Sustainability! We will have space for 20 children (split into 4 groups of 5) on each day of the half-term, with activities being specifically designed for 7-12 year olds.

The club will run from 10:30am – 2pm, beginning on Monday 14th February, ending on Friday 18th.

It will allow children to get involved in many aspects of the farm and take part in some activities based around the sustainability. It’s a real opportunity for those taking part to increase their knowledge of animals, nature and the environment whilst developing their artistic, personal, social and practical skills.

The club will cover topics and activities including:

• Learning about the different types of waste and how to reduce its impact on the environment
• The negative effects of plastic and viable alternatives
• An introduction to ecology, seeing how everything natural is connected
• Exploring different types of energy and how we can use them
• Getting our hands dirty in the garden, seeing how growing food can help us be more sustainable
• And loads more!

The activities differ on every day but whichever sessions children attend they’ll have a great time!

The Sustainable Spring Half-Term is led by farm staff and volunteers who are trained and experienced in working with children of all ages to help them achieve their potential and do more.

Sessions last 3.5 hours and cost just £25 per day. You can book as many or few dates as you wish (subject to availability)

Sustainable Spring is for 7-12 year olds only, and runs 10.30am – 2:00pm

Please bring a packed lunch with you – catering is not provided

Some of the sessions may involve physical activity around the farm and may be messy so please ensure appropriate clothing is worn.

If your child or anyone your child has been in close contact with in the 7 days prior to the booked session is showing symptoms of Coronavirus, please do not attend the session.

If you wish to discuss whether Sustainable Spring is suitable for your child, particularly if they have additional support needs, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help.
