Work Experience Training

 We occasionally take students of Veterinary science, Animal Science and Biological Science who are enrolled at an approved institution in blocks of one week. This is with full board provided at cost of $200 per week. The training includes both theory and practical experience with a strong focus on both personal and animal safety, natural horsemanship handling of horses of mixed ages and some farm activities.

Do you have skills with gardening, cooking, horses, fencing, welding, sheep work and a "can do" attitude? You will also need to have a working knowledge of English language.
