Our workshops are a great way of bringing the curriculum to life without the hassle of organising a school trip! During our Around the World VR workshop, your class will use VR headsets to compete by identifying the following:
- Country
- Continent
- City
- Landmark
- Bonus Question
Each team will be provided with an A1 map which they can use to help them identify countries and landmarks.
Following on from this workshop, your pupils can produce a piece of amazing creative writing based on their favourite location.

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 your class around the world (in a quiz style format). Give VR a go and see how it helps with creative writing!
Use our Around the World quiz as a way to inspire persuasive writing, diary entries, storytelling and more!
Physical Geography
Map and atlas Continents Wonders of the World
PrimeVR can bring your geography/maps topic to life by flying your class around the world. Using virtual reality headsets and working in teams, they'll be required to work out where they have been transported to. They'll gain points for naming the continent, country, city and landmarks as well as bonus points for general knowledge of each location.

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..
★★★★★
"Before the day, Stuart was very prompt in his emailed correspondence and accommodating to suit our requirements. John was a really pleasant chap
who delivered the sessions world map sessions in a calm, fun manner and had a natural rapport with the children. I would certainly recommend PrimeVR to any school groups."
Around the World
★★★★★
"Stuart and Chris from PrimeVR were brilliant and great with the children. They delivered 6 Around the World quiz sessions throughout the day at our library. The children and parents absolutely loved it especially the competitive element to it. The Around the World quiz is a really fun way for children to learn about different countries and places. We had loads of positive feedback from all the people who took part. Stuart was excellent at keeping in touch prior the event which made organising the event very easy. I would highly recommend PrimeVR."
