Education Programme

History Hub

Step inside our History Hub and travel through time with immersive, curriculum-linked workshops that turn history into something pupils can see, touch and experience. From the Stone Age to the Second World War, Ancient civilisations to modern social history, our sessions are designed to spark curiosity, deepen understanding and bring classroom learning vividly to life.

Through role play, artefacts, storytelling and creative activities, students don’t just learn about history — they step into it. Whether decoding Viking runes, handling wartime objects, building timelines or debating life in Victorian Britain, each workshop encourages critical thinking, empathy and active participation.

Led by experienced educators and tailored to Key Stages, our History Hub offers flexible half-day and full-day sessions that support the national curriculum while delivering an unforgettable learning experience.
