Fun Field Trips for Schools


School visits to the farm
"...fun field trips..."

We have had several years experience of hosting day trips for local schools and are able to offer schoolchildren real "hands on" experience with farming, the countryside and practical wildlife conservation

As well as being a demonstration site for both the Soil Association and the Westcountry Rivers Trust we have a close working relationship with such organisations as English Nature, the RSBP, the Environment Agency, and the Cornwall Wildlife Trust

Past school visits have incorporated

  • pond dipping
  • small mammal trapping
  • orienteering
  • bird boxes
  • sheep shearing & cow weighing!

We are ideally placed to offer your school a field trip that would cover a wide range of elements from the National Curriculum, including Geography, Science, PSHE and Citizenship

The days are also great fun and the farm gives the children a real feel of space and freedom in a very safe environment


There will be no charge to schools for field trips to South Penquite Farm for 2008!
