Pupils enjoy new forest and farm schools
The school’s children will be able to enjoy activities in the woods while the farm school has two pygmy goats, chickens, ducks and tortoises with National Air Traffic Services in Whiteley sponsoring the goat and duck house.
Jodie McMenamin, Head of Integration Delivery for NATS and school governor said: ‘The new farm is a great way of broadening our children’s education outside of the classroom.
