Virtual Outreach

Barleylands Virtual Outreach

Wherever you are in the country, you can learn about our animals on the Farm Park, see inside our educational polytunnel, and join in a virtual outreach Field to Fork workshop with one of our Education Assistants.

We have adapted our award-winning school workshops for exclusive access online.

The sessions have been designed to offer schools who cannot travel to the farm the opportunity to learn about food and farming, and how the everyday produce you eat gets to your plate.

With these immersive and interactive sessions, children will be able to ask questions, and schools can choose from a fun cookery workshop, learning how easy it is to make a healthy snack, or a seed table workshop, learning about all the seeds we plant in our fields, their end products, and what we use them for.

The session involves wheat grinding, and we will send you a small packet of wheat seeds to your school ahead of your scheduled booking, along with some information on the milling process.

Sessions will be in two parts:

  • A recorded outdoor session meeting our animals and exploring our educational polytunnel – 20-minute session, which will be emailed to you a few days ahead of your virtual classroom booking.
  • A virtual classroom session with one of our Education Assistant lasting no longer than 30 minutes.  Your session start time can be arranged when booking.

Sessions will be adapted for both KS1 and KS2 children.

We recommend our virtual outreach sessions for class sizes of up to 35 children, so that all pupils have the opportunity to interact with the Education Assistant facilitating the session, but you can discuss your requirements when placing a booking.

 

Costs:

£150.00 per single session (excluding VAT).

If booking two sessions costs are £290.00 (excluding VAT)

(Educational establishments can claim back the VAT.)

You will be sent a confirmation email from our education department and an invoice from our accounts department.
