Historic Workshops Arvostelua 

We've used Historic Workshops for over 2 years now and are never disappointed. The amazing workshop providers arrive early, with boxes and boxes of engaging activities and artifacts and keep the the children captivated all day. We hope to use them for years to come.

A brilliant day for all of the kids. The kids thoroughly enjoyed all of the Anglo-Saxon artifacts and were engaged throughout the day.

The children had an absolutely brilliant day, our presenter was enthusiastic and got everyone involved. The resources were fantastic and overall it was an amazing experience.

Our instructor Tori was great and the children really enjoyed the day. Thank you!

We have now booked Historic Workshops for 4 years in a row and we will happily book again in the future. The process is very easy. The artifacts are great quality and the day is well organised . The children love it! Rob is brilliant, he engages the children all day and has great command of the classroom. Thanks again

The children thoroughly enjoyed every WWII activity - from the artefact investigation to first aid to the water activity. Gareth was so knowledgeable and it was wonderful to see him imparting all his wisdom in such a child friendly manner. We will definitely be inviting Gareth back to our school! Thank you again for an engaging and fun-filled day!

Gareth ran the workshop and was very knowledgeable and the children responded well to his teaching. He was inclusive and fun and kept to the schedule well. He supported the teachers well. Highly recommend. We will be booking next year.

The children and adults at Fynamore had a fantastic day with King Henry VIII (of Rochford)!! The day was packed with a wide range of engaging activities across both the morning and afternoon sessions, keeping everyone interested throughout. Every activity was inclusive meeting the needs of our children, making sure everyone could take part. The archery session was a particular highlight and was thoroughly enjoyed by the children. It was a memorable and enriching day for all those involved. Thank you!

Great day! Jess, our Roman historian, was very knowledgeable and was brilliant with the children. The Roman soldier part of the day was really fun, brought our classroom learning to life. I will recommend the company to other members of staff.

Quick responses to email queries. Detailed resources and risk assessments. Great delivery by Bethany, aka Elizabeth 1st!

We booked the Egyptian day. There were lots of resources and the workshop leader was very prepared. The children had a lovely day. Thanks for coming! We will look into other workshops for our other year groups.

Tori was amazing! She was really knowledgeable and made the day fun and informative for all the children. Our Y2's were fully engaged all day and haven't stopped talking about it.

The children had a fantastic day. Jess kept them engaged all day and got them really excited for their Anglo-saxon topic. When I asked the children what their favourite part was they pretty much said everything! They loved the Witan and making decisions, they loved the board games and lots of the boys loved the battle especially the sheild wall. I would highly recommend this workshop and Jess was brilliant, thank you!

If I could give 7 stars I would. A fantastic day lead by a highly experienced, fun and engaging leader (Cassius the Centurion). We booked this day to add something of the Romans to our year 7 class camping trip (we have studied Romans this year) and the setting of the camping field definitely gave an extra dimension to our soldiering activities. A rich program of activities was offered: learning about life in the Roman army, digging for artefacts, writing Roman script on papyrus, and re-enacting the battle of Medway (Romans vs Britons). We ended the day playing Roman board games which the students loved and we have been inspired to make some of our own in our woodwork lessons. A massive thank you to all the team at Historic Workshops who made this all possible and managed our complexities as a school with skill and grace. We will definitely be doing more! If you’re wondering whether it’s worth it - it is !

Rob was an amazing lead on our recent WW2 workshop, he had the children and teachers captivated with his extensive knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject. The activities were brilliantly pitched for the Year 6 children who loved the hands on ARP activity where they became Air Raid Patrols putting out 'incendiary bombs', learnt how to bandage the injured and the era was really brought to life with the vast array of artefacts from the WW2 period. Thank you so much, the children were engaged from start to finish and this has brought to life their history, inspiring them to continue their learning. We will definitely be booking this workshop again.

David had excellent energy from the get go and hooked the children into the gruesome world of crime and punishment. He clued into their interests and drove the session focus based on what the children wanted- while still delivering the workshop content. It was engaging and interesting and the children left with further questions to explore in their history lessons. The witch hunt was an impressive game which got the children hooked! We have booked again and looking forward to it!

Thank you for providing a lovely workshop. Bethany was a great workshop leader and played the role of Elizabeth I very well! We originally booked the Tudor workshop but they were very accommodating and made it Elizabethan aswell for us to fit our curriculum!

The kids had an amazing time and definitely embedded their learning on Elizabethan and Tudors with a memorable experience. This is the second workshop we have had from you and it was just as good as the first. The other teachers have also noticed and commented on how great the day was. Thanks again to you and Bethany for a wonderful day!!

We had a great history workshop with David about Kings and Queens. The children loved every part of the day and they were always engaged. David was a fantastic lead and the children loved him as Henry VIII. All the activities were engaging and exciting for the children. Thank you very much!

Our children loved the WW2 workshop that Rob did for our school. Children were engaged, tasks were practical and you could clearly see that his subject knowledge was high. We would definitely book with this company again. Booking process good. Good value for money.

As usual an excellent day with Rob for our Anglo Saxon workshop. From the resources, the knowledge, the fun activities, the children had a fantastic day. They learnt lots and were able to use it to compare to other civilisations we had learnt about.
