Walby Farm Park – Day Visits and Learning Programmes Cumbria

A must for the school calendar whatever the season

Put your children at the heart of our farm where they can meet and feed our animals, encounter the countryside and explore the links between the food they eat and our beautiful surroundings.

We offer a range of flexible Educational Packages:

  • We can deliver educational visits from KS1 and KS2 to GCSE and A-Level on our mixed working farm.
  • We offer tailor-made Numeracy and Literacy activity days for KS1 and KS2.
  • Our Cooking on the Farm package links food and farming and gives students the chance to produce a healthy meal.
  • All of our packages are developed on the principle of hands-on learning.
  • We run seasonal school visits such as A Magical Winter Wonderland, which includes a live Nativity.

Learning outside the classroom
