Education is at the heart of everything we do at Cannon Hall Farm. We are proud to be the host farm for Channel 5’s Springtime on the Farm, celebrating all that’s great about British farming. As multiple award winners, we are always striving to enhance our visitor experience and educational offering.

Bring the Curriculum to Life with a School Visit!

Cannon Hall Farm has been a proud part of Barnsley’s farming history for decades, with a wealth of experience delivering educational visits for school groups of all sizes.

For just £7.95 per child (with one free adult per five paying children), we welcome groups of 20+ to experience life on a working farm.

Your class will be met by a friendly tour guide who’ll highlight the best of the farm, with plenty of time for questions and answers.

Explore our barns, paddocks, and animal houses, including the reptile house — home to leaf cutter ants, hissing cockroaches, chameleons, iguanas, and many more fascinating creatures. Our knowledgeable handlers can tailor the visit to fit your classroom topics, whether it’s teamwork (watch the ants in action!) or colour and adaptation (meet our clever chameleon).
