Bring the countryside into the classroom
with
Fishers Mobile Farm

Our visits fulfil important elements of the National Curriculum all within the safe environment of your school or nursery
|
School, Nursery & Playgroup Visits
We offer an exciting opportunity
for children of all ages to
experience farm life
without leaving your
school, nursery or playgroup grounds.
By introducing children to a range of farm animals in a safe,
well organised environment we will provide an experience
that motivates to produce quality work
with links across the curriculum.
We are fully insured & a Risk Assessment form can be downloaded here
We will leave your school grounds clean & tidy
We arrive at your school about 2 hours before our educational visit begins to set up our farm -
- All we need is access for our towing car & trailer & enough room to set up our pens - about 20m x 20m - usually your playground area is ample, either grass or hard standing is OK
- There usually will be 3 or 4 of us from Fishers Mobile Farm, but would ask you to supply an appropiate number of teachers/adults for child supervision
- You will need hand washing facilities, although we will provide sanitising hand gel
- In accordance with DEFRA regulations, no other livestock can be present in the area.
- If you have any special requirements, please let us know
We have gazebos to keep your children & our animals dry if rain or cool if sunny (!!). All our animals are securely enclosed in pens allowing children to get close to the animals in a safe & fun environment.
Our visits include:
- Time for the children to wander among the pens, chat to us & meet our animals
- Meeting the individual animals as a group activity: discussing breeds & their differences, what each animal eats, where each animals lives & where do they sleep, how our animals stay fit & healthy & answering any questions
