Chicken Sitters

Summer holidays are almost here — and so is our much-anticipated Chicken Sitting Roster! Whether you’re looking for a fun family activity, a way to get outside, or just a chance to collect fresh eggs, we’ve got you covered!

We’re thrilled to announce that the School Summer Holidays Chicken Sitting Roster is now open for sign-ups. Head over to our online roster to pick as many sessions as you like and help look after our beloved school chickens. 👉 Sign up here: 

🐣 What’s Involved?

Signing up is simple and flexible! When you choose a session, your family will:

• Come to school on the day you choose
• Visit the chickens and spend time with them
• Sweep out the coop and clean up the straw
• Collect fresh eggs for your household
• Top up food and water so our girls stay happy and healthy

It’s just a short visit — but it means so much for our school and our feathered friends.

🌟 Why Join In?

Looking after the chickens is not only practical — it’s fun! Families who’ve joined past rosters have loved:

• Seeing the chickens up close
• Little ones learning about animal care
• The joy of gathering fresh eggs
• Being outdoors and part of our school community

Adding your name to a session is a simple way to help out — and it’s something kids and adults can enjoy together. 

📅 Sign Up for One — Or Many!

Feel free to sign up for as many sessions as you want — you’re welcome to visit once, several times, or even every week! The more the merrier. Families often find that different days offer different little moments — from watching the chickens scratch about in the morning sun to discovering eggs ready to collect.
