Open Evenings Taster Days Presentation Day Sparsholt College Open Day Held in mid May, this popular event attracts many interested members of the public each year to view the College's departments, home farm and activities. Staff and students are on hand throughout the whole area to assist the public in any way they can and to demonstrate all aspects of the College's work, the extent of which can be gauged by browsing through this web site. In addition, a number of outside organisations whose work is relevant to College activities also have stands and displays. The Open Day is essentially a day of interest particularly suited to prospective students and their families, with plenty of factual information for those keen to develop an understanding of the countryside. There are tractor rides, and charity events organised by the Students' Committee.
Refreshments are available for purchase.
