'No boarders, just horizons, only freedom!' Meet the enthusiastic Amelia Earhart, as she shares her passion for adventure as the first female pilot to fly across the Atlantic ocean. During the workshop the children will be introduced to many great explorers, Christopher Columbus, Joseph Banks, Nellie Bly and Neil Armstrong to name a few. However, if you and your class are studying a particular person, we will happily include them! During the session the children will be challenged to find out what makes a great explorer, who they are and why they explore, through improvisation, role play and movement. During the session the children will create a time line, perform a poem and take part in a short, quick fire quiz.
