A different side to history...
Have you ever wondered how a Roman put his toga on? What a Victorian school lesson was like? Or what a Saxon warrior did in his spare time? Or the real reason why ale was an important part of the Tudor diet?
We won't just tell your students the answers to these questions - we will show them. They will take part in `hands on' activities which will give them experiences and memories not available from a book.
Our visit will be tailored to your requirements - let us know what you'd like! We will alter the subject and level of your students to take into account their age, areas studied and of course, when relevant, the National Curriculum. Of course, we have a large number of tried and tested topics and activities that will give your students food for thought and new experiences.
These include:
- Civilian clothing in Rome and the Empire.
- Saxon riddles.
- Investigation of reproduction (and original) artefacts.
- Saxon burial and religious customs.
- The Later Roman Army.
- Ancient board games and leisure.
- A Victorian geography lesson.
- Why boys and men were expected to practise archery in Tudor England.
Our background enables us to discuss the options open to you as a gladiator who refuses to fight...or how Latin changed over the centuries. And much more - just ask!
