Historic Workshops Omdömen 

Our second year with Rob as host for the WWI experience and another fantastic experience for us. Rob is so knowledgeable and engaging. All the children absolutely loved the whole day. Thanks again, Rob!

We were lucky enough to have Jess visit and deliver Ancient Egyptian workshops. The kids loved it and the tone was perfect! Resources were all age appropriate and well explained. Would definitely recommend and will definitely book again! Thank you, Jess!

We had a great Stone Age workshop with Danny (Ug) today. He was friendly and fun, the children were laughing straight away - which engaged them ready to learn. They learned lots more facts about the stone age but also got to look at bones and artefacts, make weapons, have a go at cave art and do some archery too! A great day, highly recommended.

The whole day was well run; the children enjoyed the hands-on ARP activities and they loved looking at the artefacts, especially when they had the opportunity to try and guess what some of the mystery objects were.

It was a very interactive and informative workshop! The children enjoyed the activities and learned a lot more about The Great Fire of London. It was inclusive so all children could take part as well which was great.

Our Year 2 class absolutely loved the Great Fire of London workshop delivered by HistoricWorkshops! The session was engaging, informative, and perfectly pitched for the children’s age group. The activities were creative and hands-on — making pomanders and fire marks really helped the children connect with what life was like in 1666, and the “rebuilding London” activity encouraged teamwork and critical thinking. The workshop leader was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and fantastic at keeping the children captivated throughout the session. It was a brilliant way to enrich our history topic and helped bring the Great Fire to life in a memorable and meaningful way. We would highly recommend HistoricWorkshops to any school looking for an interactive and educational experience!

Rob was amazing in our WW2 workshop today. The children enjoyed the session so much. He had so many artefacts and the activities were incredibly engaging. He was so knowledgeable and could answer any of the children's questions.

What a great way for our KS1 children to learn about The Great Fire of London! The activities kept the children engaged throughout the day. The day ran smoothly with all lessons being well planned for and resourced. The story telling was fantastic too.

Beth was amazing, she engaged the children well and made every activity interactive. The instructions were clear, the workshops let the children be creative and challenged them to problem solve.

They got an excellent immersion into the Stone Age World

We had a brilliant Ancient Egyptian day with Bethany! There was a range of engaging activities which all the children could access and enjoyed. Bethany was in role in the whole day which made the experience for the children even more real. All activities were clearly explained and set up to ensure the day ran smoothly. The feedback from the children was that they had “The best day ever”. One child gave it a 1000/5 review! We are already looking at booking for next year. Thank you for a great immersive day!

We had a great day with Rob leading our Roman Workshop! Everything was as described on the website - it was well organised and the day ran smoothly as arranged. He was very engaging with the children and shared his vast knowledge in a fun and informative way. All resources were well prepared and supplied, and the children thoroughly enjoyed all of the activities - especially the mock battle between the Celts and the Romans which was very well delivered. Thank you for a great experience!

We had an absolutely fantastic Stone Age Day with Historic Workshops! Gareth ('Owl') was excellent — engaging, knowledgeable, and absolutely brilliant with the children. The range of practical, hands-on activities kept everyone involved and excited throughout the day. Both children and staff had an amazing time — highly recommend!

A very immersive day for the children, they loved being part of the experience.

We had Historic Workshops come in to do a Year 3 Stone Age workshop and they were brilliant!
Gareth interacted well with the children, they were very engaged and enthusiastic. The activities were well organised and easy to follow for the teacher lead ones.
We will absolutely be booking future workshops

The workshop leader was knowledgeable and made the battle part extremely fun for the children. He was clear in the work the teachers had to deliver throughout the day and the slides were easy to follow.

Rob was such an amazing workshop leader with a fantastic wealth of knowledge about the Romans. He was able to keep all of the children engaged and desperate to know more about Roman times. The activities were hands on and informative, all children had an fabulous time! Thank you so much for your dedication, knowledge and time.

The children enjoyed all of the planned activities - but they were also delivered with great gusto on the battle-side by Mally! The day was a great success and the battle tactics session was the jewel in the crown.

Great day exploring The Great Fire of London with Gareth from Historic Workshop. We spent the morning look at some real artifacts and drawing them. Then we moved on to smelling and making Pamanda's. The children really enjoyed this activity and the classroom smells wonderful today!! We then make Fire Marks after lunch. We made them out of clay and we all understand why houses had them at the front. We finished the day with designing our own New London!! The children were fully engaged for the whole day! Thankyou to Samuel Pepys (Gareth) for a very informative day.

Amazing knowledge from the leader- a wide range of artefacts for the children to handle and experience.

Our Workshop leader David was fantastic! He immersed the children in the history of the Stone Age! I was so impressed by his knowledge and the way he was able to make historical concepts engaging and fun for the children! The whole workshop was so interactive and my class enjoyed themselves thoroughly, I know they will remember the experience and their learning will stay with them! David was organised, professional and above all it was clear to see his passion for the subject which he passed onto the children!
