School Outings


	At Garden World, we offer children two educational outings:

	Programme 1:	General Farming	GO
	Programme 2:	Growing Plants	GO


		~ School Outings

Garden World's JJ testing school children during a visit!


	These programmes are very popular as the 'Hands-on' experience on the farm is a wonderful learning curve for the children. We present the facets of agriculture to the children who visit us, according to the age and development of the child. The children have great fun while gaining education. All the programmes are supervised and provide a learning experience where the children gain knowledge of plant and animal lore. Give your children the magic of touching, loving and feeding tame farm animals. A truly fascinating experience for toddlers, pre-primary and primary school children. School, Scout, Sunday School and all other groups are most welcome. Programme 2 - Growing Plants - is a good grounding for school children. Garden World is a garden centre with its own plant growing facilities. This programme is also a 'hands-on' experience teaching the children the importance of growing plants. On request, Entrepreneurship can be included in this program where we discuss and illustrate the various aspects of growing plants for business purposes.
