Steven Allday

Hi, my name is Steven Allday and my background is in education.  I have been teaching for the last 20 years and I have worked with a variety of students in some wonderful schools.  I was a deputy headteacher for six years in West Lancashire and I have been a Special Needs Coordinator for the past eight years, working with children with a range of additional needs.  These include children with Autism, ADHD, Specific Learning Difficulties, Physical Difficulties and a variety of Emotional Difficulties.  

 

As a person, my dream was always to live in our beautiful countryside and learn about the ways and customs that make it special. I have always enjoyed the company of animals and our family farm is home to our horses, dogs, cats, goats, sheep, guinea pigs and rabbits. 

 

My passion is to provide excellent experiences for children and adults that inspire them and motivate them.  We at Allday’s Farm, through the Country Learning Farm, aim to provide a service that is bespoke to the needs of your community and is safely organised for all to enjoy. The health and safety of all those involved and our animals is always of paramount importance to us and central to our aims and beliefs. 

 

 

Sam

My wife Sam has been an animal lover all her life.  She is a head of Biology in a secondary school and because she has a full time job she works part time with the farm, helping create learning opportunities, thinking of ways to inspire deeper understanding in Science by using our animals.  She has is particularly interested in horses, dogs and tortoises but loves being around all animals.
