Trip to
RESIDENTIAL PSHCE #
December 2019 saw 12 students and three members of
staff make the bi-annual trip to Jamie’s Farm, near
Bath, for a week long residential visit. Jamie’s Farm is
a working farm which is home to cows, sheep, horses,
pigs, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs and a donkey. Visits
here incorporate farming and caring for these animals
alongside a 5-day programme of therapy, reflectiveness
and personal growth. Students are without their phones or
other technology for the week, which alongside vigorous
daily walks and three home cooked nutritious meals a
day allows them to thrive away from the distractions of
the city. Our students (and staff!) acquitted themselves
well against the sizeable tasks that were given to them
– cleaning out and feeding the animals before breakfast,
preparing, cooking and serving the meals for over 20
people at each sitting and throwing themselves into the
other tasks that farming life has to offer. We planted new
herbs and salad leaves at the vegetable patches; chopped
logs for the huge boiler; helped herd and tag sheep at
nearby Steve’s farm; assisted with the training of a new
horse to the farm, alongside many other jobs. All of these
activities taught our students courage, determination and
leadership skills. I am very proud of our young people
and looking forward to seeing where the new bonds, skills
and values our week at Jamie’s Farm lead us.
