Creative writing
At PrimeVR, we understand how difficult it can be to inspire children with their writing. We aim to create excitement by virtually transporting pupils to various famous mountains around the world! Not only will we provide your class with exciting facts about these mountains but we'll also provide them with an experience to ignite their imagination. Give VR a go and see how it helps with creative writing!
Physical Geography

PrimeVR can bring your geography topic to life by transporting your pupils to Mount Everest! Using virtual reality headsets, we'll take your class to stand at the summit and they'll also be able to see what it's like to stay at base camp. We'll also discuss the risks for climbers attempting to ascend to the top, including altitude sickness, moving glaciers, unpredictable avalanches and the impact of global warming on the mountain!

We can deliver up to six workshops throughout the school day with a maximum of 32 pupils in each workshop.
We bring in 16 headsets and pupils will share one between two during workshops.

Reviews from Schools..
★★★★★
"The workshops were great, especially the fact that you could tailor it to the topic you were studying. All were delivered smoothly and included
our many SEND children who loved it. One quote from a boy who had the mountain workshop was 'I have no words, it was unbelievably amazing. I loved it!' It was easy to communicate beforehand and the workshop was good value."

★★★★★
"Thanks for an amazing day for our Ks2 children! They were all so engaged in the learning and Stuart was great with them! The session was well paced and they used geographical knowledge to locate places they were visiting through the VR headset on the world maps. It was an excellent experience to engage them into their new geography topics. Feedback from the children was very positive and I would highly recommend the workshops we had- volcanoes, mountains, rainforest and polar regions. The booking process and communication by email was easy and Stuart was very professional and helpful. I also like that there are lesson plans to support the session afterwards. A huge thanks for the Prime VR experience!"
