Keep chickens at your school!

The eglu for schools has been designed to support teachers in using the outdoor classroom as a resource across the curriculum for pupils of all ages.

Keeping chickens can help reconnect young people with their environment, food and animals in both urban and rural settings. Omlet can provide you with the expertise, resources and information to make keeping chickens in your school easy, fun and rewarding.
