Due to the number of supervising adults present, our Splash Pool, Boating Lake and Climbing Net are not open to schools.

Some of the outdoor activities will be weather dependant (for example the jumping pillows).

Our main cafe GRAZE will also be closed.

The arrival time is 10am.

We encourage all of our group bookings to arrive on time as we often have more than one school visiting on any day.

If you think you are going to be late please let us know so we can keep our team up to date.

Please head to car park 1.

A member of the team will be ready to meet you.

🥪 All adults and children should bring a packed lunch and a water bottle. Our catering outlets will only be selling hot and cold drinks, snacks and ice creams - Please note that we are unable to take pre-orders for items and the Cowshed Kiosk is card only payments.

🚰 There are two water points in the park where you are able to refill water bottles throughout the day.

🥾 All children must wear suitable footwear (ideally trainers) and clothing that covers their back, arms and legs if they wish to use the slides. We also advise packing a waterproof, sun hat, sun cream etc. depending on the weather.

Please discourage children from bringing any extra items or valuables.

⚕️ The teachers leading the trip must have emergency contact details for each child and details of allergies. Any child receiving first aid who is not able to re-join the group quickly must be collected by an adult or be taken to A&E if necessary.

We will have a designated area for your group to keep bags / lunch boxes during the day.

Your belongings are left at your own risk and we request that children do not bring any valuables or electronic devices on site.

We will provide your group with a designated area to eat lunch and our school host will advise you of where this is upon arrival.

If there is more than one group visiting on the day of your visit we will have a separate area for each school.

Our visits are self-led but there will be a few timetabled elements of your day.

You’ll be given a designated time for access to The Cowshed/Sand Barn, the Slide Barn and The Animal Barn for your educational animal talk. This ensures that your school has exclusive use of the various areas if there are other schools visiting on the same day.

These times will be advised in advance so you can plan your day.

Rest assured, our team will be on hand throughout the day should you have any questions.

We do not offer animal handling during our school visits but after the educational animal talk the children will be given some animal feed and they can hand feed the animals along the Farm Trail.

The tractor trailer rides are no longer available for school visits.

You can download a copy of our risk assessment on the School Visits section of our website.

If you require any additional information you can contact our team who would be happy to help.

Unfortunately, we do not offer visits to site to carry out a risk assessment prior to your school visit as during the week as the park will be closed and our maintenance team will be actively working.
