Year 7 Visit – Herts School’s Farming Day

May 11, 2026/in General News/by Isabelle Stuckey

We are pleased to inform you that we have secured 60 places for Year 7 pupils to attend Herts School’s Farming Day, a practical and hands-on educational event focused on local food production and farming in Hertfordshire.

Event details are as follows:

  • Date: Tuesday 30th June
  • Time: Pupils will leave school at 9:15am and return by 3:15pm
  • Location: Herts Showground, Redbourn
  • Cost: £7 per pupil

During the day, pupils will take part in a range of small workshops, talks, and presentations led by local farmers. They will also have the opportunity to meet farm animals and learn about the machinery used in modern farming. This promises to be an engaging and educational experience.

Payment and consent must be completed via School Gateway by Friday 22nd May. Please note that places are limited to 60 pupils. A waiting list will be taken on e all places are allocated.

What pupils will need:

  • Full PE kit
  • A packed lunch and drinks

There will be no purchasing facilities on site, so pupils will not need to bring any additional money.

If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to speak to Mrs Johnson.

Kind regards,

Mrs Johnson
