Stone Age Workshop
Primary History Workshops
The Stone Age workshop is our MOST popular workshop! If you want a highly experienced, dedicated and enthusiastic teacher, then this is the workshop for you!
We now have two workshop leaders who run this workshop due to it's popularity, so either Adam or Liane will arrive bright and early to prepare everything and allow you to put your feet up to enjoy the day! They will provide all activities and resources for the workshop, including over 200 artefacts for the children to explore.
