Meet a character from history!
Our online workshops are a fantastic alternative to an in school workshop. Your class will have a one hour private Zoom livestream with a historical character from the period of your choice. Children will get to ask questions and interact with your character as though they were speaking through a magic portal! Hold your own workshop day with our additional activities both online and downloadable: dressing up ideas, period food recipes, online games and creative crafts with enough activities to keep your class busy for a full day! We keep our online visits to small groups so these can be as interactive as possible, but we can offer you repeat sessions on the same day for a reduced rate to cater to larger groups. We can even arrange for livestreams to be pre-recorded and sent to you! You send us your children’s questions and we create a personalised video just for your class.
Great for All situations
A virtual visit is great for places where an in person workshop is impractical, such as:
- Schools with less space or time
- Remote or hard to reach places
- Groups with no venue of their own
- Special behavioural or medical units
- British schools overseas
Same fantastic experience on a budget!
You’ll get access to our additional activities, including art & crafts, creative writing, drama and role play, games and quizzes designed to keep the children busy for the rest of the day!
We can even show things on livestreams we can’t bring into schools – like our authentic Viking dogs!
All our usual topics plus:
We can also offer topics that are not available for full day workshops including:
- Florence Nightingale
- The Mayans
- History of medicine
- Tudor Alchemy
- Early Islam and medieval Baghdad
- Dragons!
