Our Susanโ€™s Farm alternative provision offers pupils the opportunity to learn and develop skills in a nurturing outdoor environment. Through hands-on experiences with animals, nature, and practical farm tasks, students build confidence, teamwork, and engagement with learning in a different setting. During our first Explore and Engage session, pupils were introduced to the daily life of the farm and learned about seasonal farm cycles. A special highlight was meeting Peggy, the first lamb of the year, who quickly became a firm favourite with the group. Students then got hands-on with farm life, spending time with the chickens and helping with important farm tasks including collecting, washing, and preparing egg orders ready for the local community. We continued with a walk around the fields, where pupils explored the wider farm environment where they met the cows, and fully embraced the outdoors โ€” muddy puddles included! The group showed fantastic teamwork, curiosity, and enthusiasm throughout the session. A brilliant first visit and a positive start to the term. #Ambition #Resilience #Respect
