Anglo Saxons Workshop
One Day Creative
One Day is a forward-thinking creative education company, connecting children and learning with creativity and imagination. In this primary school workshop, your pupils will be joined by a facilitator and use drama to bring the world of the Anglo Saxons to life. Using the astounding archaeological discoveries at Sutton Hoo as a focal point, we'll begin to answer some big questions about this historic culture. When did they arrive here? Who were their gods? And what's the story behind that beautiful helmet found buried in the ground? Let's find out!
