Workshops at the Museum
From Pre-History to World War Two, we offer a range of hands on, cross curricular workshops to really help your pupils engage with the past.
All of the workshops focus on local case studies and are led by Learning Officer, who has over fifteen years of experience of working with schools in museums. So you can sit back, and enjoy the workshop with your class!
Workshops are only £3 per student, which includes all materials and a souvenir badge!
