Farmer’s wife sets up school in cowshed

Not really a garden shed, but techincally a shed.
The daily nail, reports
The once derelict cowshed is the classroom, the farmyard is now a concrete playground and the old vegetable patch is the football pitch.
Welcome to Hollyfields, the school in the middle of a working dairy farm.
And, with sheep and chickens roaming around at playtime, it’s safe to say the 23 pupils are enjoying a broader curriculum than usual.
Geoffrey Miller and his wife Anne, a teacher, set up the private school after their village’s state-run primary closed in July and Mrs Miller lost her job.
The Millers spent £250,000 converting the derelict shed into two classrooms, toilets, office and staff room in time for the start of term.
