Rural Skills Workshops - Secondary pupils
This workshop takes place on the Dumfries House Estate.
Our farm education activity takes pupils from Primary 1 through to upper secondary school and develops an understanding of the food production system and good practice in farming. Workshops are contextualised by age and range from the opportunity to view an egg in development to handling new-born chicks or focusing on one particular industry such as dairy or beef farming.
Secondary pupils undertaking rural skills qualifications are able to gain a greater understanding of animal husbandry and welfare beyond that available in school to enhance their skills and knowledge. We place great importance in sustainable farming practice to ensure that pupils who take part in our workshops develop an understanding of the issues the planet currently faces in producing food for an expanding population without detriment to the planet.
