Important preparation
information
To ensure that you and
your group make the most of your day on the farm, please read this carefully
and communicate any relevant information to staff, helpers, parents and
children.
Please also
refer to the booking terms and conditions on the booking form.
Group Responsibility including
Discipline & Supervision
Visiting parents/carers are responsible for the supervision, safe
behaviour and wellbeing of their group members, ensuring all health and safety
procedures are adhered to as advised by Magdalen staff during the introductory
talks and risk assessments. Magdalen is a working farm
therefore all students must be accompanied at all times. Magdalen reserves the right to terminate
activities if there is inadequate supervision or poor discipline.
Lunch
Lunch is included and we offer jacket potatoes with a choice of fillings with homemade cake. We recommend a refillable drinks bottle to avoid dehydration. Light refreshments and snacks are included throughout the day.
Clothing
Regardless of
the weather - we don’t stop unless we absolutely have to, so please advise
everyone to wear adequate OLD clothing for wet/warm/cold weather – plenty of
layers are best. This includes a woolly
hat, wellies, thick socks, waterproof jacket, waterproof trousers, sun cream,
and a sunhat according to the weather conditions. A spare set of clothing is advisable.
Risk Assessments
Risk
assessments for all activities are available upon request. If at any time visiting staff are unhappy
about an activity, it is essential they make their concerns known to your
Magdalen leader at the earliest opportunity.
Farmland, Water, Bio-security and
Animals
Adults should
ensure that children follow the advice given in the introductory talk from
Magdalen leader, as well as guidance from risk assessments. It is the responsibility of visiting staff to
ensure the group wash and dry their hands thoroughly before and after eating,
after any contact with animals, and after every activity.
First Aiders and First Aid Kits
Magdalen
leaders carry first aid kits when out on the farm away from the centre
