Earth School
An education visit to Earth Trust offers the opportunity for young people to take their classroom based learning and come to understand its importance in a real world setting.
Our curriculum linked Earth School environmental education workshops have been developed with teachers in mind, with a focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), the Arts and Human History for Key Stages 1-4. 
Our stunning Oxfordshire location and natural environment are our best teaching tools. Every education session we run is based in the outdoors.
We are lucky to have an Iron Age hill fort, SSSI woodland, grassland habitats and the river Thames all within walking distance of our farm and centre. We use these sites to provide immersive school trips to explore roman history, geography, climate and sustainability.
Our small and passionate team of experienced tutors will work with your students to offer a unique day of wonder, discovery and learning.
About our workshops
Every Earth Trust education workshop is delivered on our outstanding site which includes woodland, wildflower meadows, extensive farmland, rivers and wetlands, and nationally significant heritage assets. We champion cross-curricular learning at every opportunity, knowing it can greatly enhance student understanding.
Most of our workshops are a full day (10am-2.30pm) but some can be run as half days, or combined to create a full day of fun and learning. We offer sessions throughout the year and tailor activities to the seasons. With flexible options, you can come to us or we can bring our sessions to your school.
We currently offer 10 workshops, based around two themes: Living World, People & Planet and Human History. Download our flyer or contact [email protected] to find out more.
