Churchfields Scarecrow Competition

We will be hosting our second Scarecrow Competition this October with the aim of bringing classes together to create something using as much imagination as possible!

Participating students will get a voucher for a free visit to our Fun Farm for the weekend of the 5th and 6th October (usual charges apply to other family members).

The winning group will be awarded with a school trip to Churchfields for the whole class.

So here’s some information that you’ll need to know before entering.

About your Scarecrow:

· All entries should be as creative as you like (child friendly) using as many recycled products as possible

· One entry per school class/nursery

· Creation of scarecrow must be at the school.

· To enter we need to have all registrations by the 25th September please to ensure we have enough space – email [email protected] to request your entry form and entry instructions.

· Scarecrows will be displayed outside The Old Barn at Churchfields from 4th – 6th October – there will be no charge to come and see the scarecrows (although if you fancy extra fun you can book Fun Farm tickets via www.churchfields.farm) and every visitor will have the chance to vote for their favourite.

· – The winning scarecrow will be announced on 7th October on our social media channels and your school will be notified via email.

· – There will be one winner chosen by the public votes.

Important stuff for grown-ups

Working together for a safe and relaxing visit to Churchfields

1. All children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a full paying adult at all times. Churchfields is a working farm with livestock in adjoining fields.
2. You must stay on the trail and dogs are welcome but must be on a lead at all times. Please scoop any poop.
3. The ground is uneven and there are cowpats. Brambles, stinging nettles, tree roots, fallen branches and twigs are encountered on the trail.
4. The fields have cattle water troughs and barbed wire fences. There is a stream and pond in the woods.
5. Events are completed at your own risk. Ensure you have the proper footwear and adequate clothing before starting out. Check the weather forecast. The trails may be unsuitable for wheel chairs and push chairs (all terrain pushchairs at your own risk).
6. Remember that you are responsible for the safety of yourself and others in your group while on the trail.
7. Don’t forget to respect the privacy and property of others. Follow the Government’s guidance on staying safe outside your home. We advise bringing your own hand sanitiser.
8. Do not allow your children to go ahead and separate from the group.
9. Before you begin, agree on an emergency rendezvous point should someone become separated from your group.
10. In the event of an accident while on the trail, do not attempt to move the casualty, please call the emergency services on 999, giving your location: Churchfields Farm, Salwarpe, Nr Droitwich, WR9 OAF.
11. Place your litter in a bin or take it home with you.
