We still have spaces for 2-5 year olds from February onwards, please join the waiting list for further information.
Please note a £20 administration fee is applied to all new waiting list applications. This is non-refundable and helps cover the administration costs of managing the waiting lists. It is not and should not be seen as a guarantee of, or deposit on, a place.
Farm Adventurers is our unique, all year-round sessional childcare experience for 2 to 5-year-olds. We are based in our own ‘forest area’ with a log cabin behind the sports pitch in the grounds of the farm.
We believe the outdoor environment is an exceptional environment for young children to learn in, we believe it provides opportunities for children to experience the natural environment and nature play in all weathers and seasons in a spontaneous and fun way.
We believe being outdoors provides limitless opportunities to enrich young children’s learning and is essential for their physical and emotional wellbeing, whether it be through bug hunting, exploring the changing seasons, mud play, creative play or observing nature and the changing seasons.
