Typical - chicken poo is against regulations? Surely guinea pig/rabbit/cow/goldfish poo would also be against regulations.
That's such a pity. The whole school could get involved with chickens - if you had a small flock of 15 or so (don't know what your class sizes are) then all the classes could have turns bringing in scraps, cleaning them out once a week, and taking home an egg every other day or so, for about 1 week a half-term - enough to maintain interest, and not enough to get fed up with it. Plus you have a whole village full of children who knew how look after chickens (wish I'd learnt that at school!)
You might even be able to contribute to the school meal budget. I suppose the holidays would be a problem, though |
I don't think you'd need that many to be honest - we're a school of 55 kids! Three or four would probably be ample. There is no school kitchen as its too tiny, but selling them would teach business skills and maths to the older ones. As for the holidays I can't see a problem. I live at the end of the road, the caretaker of the school is next door, I'm sure between us we could work it out and if others want to join in, well more the merrier!! |
