The Beaulieu Residential

Every year, around January or February, Year 4 children get the opportunity to stay on a farm in Beaulieu for a week.  They sample the life of a farmer and spend lots of time outdoors, regardless of the wintery weather, learning, enjoying and aspiring through participation.
