The charges are outlined below:
Assemblies – FREE
Workshops – £50 per day. You may have up to four workshops a day.
Farm tours – the tours themselves are free but we do charge a £75 administration fee. All staff are DBS checked and Safeguard trained. And all locations have a NFU risk assessment.
Incubators – £75
- All equipment, food, bedding and anything you will possibly need is included.
- Our trained staff set up and give the class a lesson on what’s happening then return and do the same the following week but candling the eggs to see what’s fertile and developing.
- You keep chicks for a week once hatched, again everything needed is supplied
- We then collect and they return the chicks to the farm, this is a real farm in Devon, these are show breeds and layers notable birds (even the cockerels)
- total time from starting the process to us collection is 4 weeks
- Everything is PAT tested
We will invoice the school on a monthly basis. I understand your budgets are tight, but I hope you will feel that this relatively small contribution to FarmLink is worthwhile. It will enable us to move closer to sustainability and therefore secure our future and enable more charitable trusts to support us. I am hopeful that either your budgets or your PTA will be able to make the payment.
I would like to remind you that we will still be offering a bus subsidy of £100 for each farm tour booked; this will continue for as long as our restricted fund allows it.
