Make Food, Farming and the Environment Fun... |
Rushmoor is a clean, open air classroom providing memorable days full of fresh air and animals.
Many children could be seeing, smelling touching or hearing farm animals for the first time – an experience we all want them to have in a safe and secure environment so they get the best from it. |
 |
 |
We will do all we can to make your visit run smoothly, as well as being fun, informative, and safe... |
| A day at Rushmoor provides plenty of possibilities for follow on work back in the classroom and a great investment in your children's futures – we will give you a quality and value for money experience in a package that includes a guided tour of all the park and animals offering both education and entertainment. |

For celebrating special occasions we also have great days out for general group visits who are not so focused on the educational side of things. So if you just want to bring your nursery group, or care home residents or the local WI or perhaps all your family and friends then we can offer you a day that will bring out the “softie” that is in all of us.
You may just want to come for a cup of tea and a bit of cake in the tea room or lunch or Afternoon Tea without including a visit to the animals – no problem – we can cater for those of you who prefer perhaps to sit and watch the world go by!!
Groups of all sizes are welcome - those upwards of 10 will attract a preferential rate - please contact us for details.
