EDUCATIONAL SERVICES
|
We believe that learning should be fun, so we use our knowledge and skills to take children and adults of all ages on an exciting journey of discovery into the past. Join legionary Marcus Valerius on the eve of the Iceni revolt in Roman Britain; walk with William the Conqueror on the field at Senlac Hill; learn the Ave Maria with Franciscan brother Benedict; balance the books with 15th century merchant Robert Toppes; campaign with William Wilberforce for the abolition of slavery; or listen to the life story of a Mosquito pilot in 1944 - our costumed educators can provide an insight into any period of English history. We also have a fabulous selection of replica artifacts which have been specifically designed for examination and study. The armour can be worn, and all weapons and tools are safe to handle. Our displays encourage curiosity and provoke discussions, which often begin with simple questions like:
For special occasions we can provide a cast of generic characters from various periods. For example, our knight, surgeon, monk, minstrel, falconer and cook - fully equipped with historically accurate tools of the trade - take part in many medieval-themed educational sessions. We have done all the necessary paperwork to support our services, including CRB checks, public liability insurance, child protection policy, risk assessments, model release forms. We have a perfect record and want to keep it that way! Contact us for details, and we will help you to create an experience that will be remembered for years to come! |
