A residential to Skeet House and Sadeh Farm

Year 4 children from Alma with their cheeky charm

Arriving on a rainy April Thursday

The coach even fit in the driveway!

Falafel, hummus and potatoes to eat

Ice cream and pie – what a treat!

Edible trail, pond making and buzzing bees

We tasted honey in the shade of trees

We ran and laughed and climbed along

The obstacle course – we were so strong!

Zip wire, tennis and football too

Lots of grass to run fast through

Beds so comfy and rooms so clean and bright

We stayed up late with all our might

Tired teachers from no sleep at all

We kept them up and had a ball!

We’re sad that it’s over; bring on next year

We would like to give Skeet staff a cheer!

Thank you Talia, Alex, Bryan and Emma – you’re great!

Year 5 at Skeet House – we just can’t wait!

Year 4, Alma Primary

Sadeh Farm hosted us, a group of researchers from UCL, for an away day and night designed to foster collaboration and team work. We found it to be a perfect environment for our needs. There was lots of space for informal working and lots of activities outside on the farm to help with teamwork and bonding and keep us busy in between work sessions. We had the place to ourselves so we could really relax, and we were made to feel very comfortable and welcome. This is helped by their lovely farm manager Talia who is friendly and approachable and organised all the activities for us. The food (all vegan) was delicious too. All in all a successful stay and we will definitely be back! UCL
