Schoolchildren and school trips are at the heart of Magdalen Farm …
We welcome 3000 children on school trips each year, coming from far and wide for bespoke programmes of activity and learning.
A school trip to Magdalen farm is about:
learning
nature
Confidence and personal development
Social skills and team building
Every school, and every class, is unique …
So we don’t have a set programme… we don’t try turn every child into a farmer, or assume we know what’s best for them.
What we will do is build on your approach to learning and development and give every child an inspiring experience of nature.
What children will learn depends on their starting point, and how the trip contributes to the teachings of your school. We will co-design the trip with you before you arrive.

I know that we're going to take these skills back with us and we're going to actually do something with it
- Staff from a residential school vists, April 2025
A highlight for me was when we were feeding the chickens
- Child, February 2025
We all had a great time. the activities were fun, informative and well-paced (for both the children and the adults!) and magdalen's staff were very friendly and welcoming
I want to explore more about different plants and trees and teach people close to me the stuff I learnt
