Pupils visit Hartpury College

A group of our Sixth Form Countryside Management and Equine Studies pupils enjoyed a visit to Hartpury College in Gloucestershire on Friday to get a taste for the higher education courses they offer.

Part of the group went on a detailed tour of the equine facilities, including the horse treadmill, and the mechanical horse was particularly popular!  The other group members visited the dairy and took part in two practical ‘lessons’ with current Hartpury students - soil sampling and analysing the dairy cattle’s feed and assessing how efficiently they were eating.

Lots of fun was had by all with plenty to think about in terms of progression post Milton Abbey.
