A Full Day at Frampton: Children, Critters, and Curious Hands.
Frampton Farm’s Summer Holiday Club places children at the centre of farm life for a full day of hands-on experiences with animals, outdoor learning and simple crafts. Designed for ages 5 to 12, the full-day session (9am–3pm) lets kids feed and care for animals, take part in organised games and activities, and spend relaxed time outdoors under farm supervision.

Morning animal care and feeding
Children prepare and feed the animals as a group activity, meeting the farmers and learning basic animal-care tasks that form the heart of the day.
Half- or full-day flexibility
The operator runs both half-day and full-day sessions so families can choose a 9am–12noon option or the full 9am–3pm day; this listing is for the full-day session.
Hands-on learning, crafts and outdoor play
Alongside animal tasks, the programme includes crafts, games and time in horticulture areas so children learn practical skills and enjoy open-air play.
