Askham Bryan College to host taster event for would-be students
9:44am Tuesday 27th July 2010 in
TEENAGERS interested in a career outdoors are being invited to taster days at Askham Bryan College, near York.
The prospective students will get the chance to drive a tractor or take a spin in an off-road LandRover or a Lotus sports car.
Courses offered at the college cover all aspects of agriculture, equestrian interests, landscape design, sports turf management, outdoor adventure sport and motor racing mechanics. Much of the teaching takes place in the outdoor classrooms of a working farm, with a herd of 250 cows, an equestrian centre with over 40 horses and an award-winning landscape design area.
To find out more and book a place on a taster day, phone 01904 772277.
