School Visits
Enrich children’s History studies by experiencing Daily Life in the Past
Visiting Kentwell with your school will put what you are teaching in the classroom into context. Breathe extra life into their studies as they experience meeting a rich tapestry of people from the past from High Gentry to lesser sorts with some hands-on activities spread throughout the Manor from Hall & Gardens to farm & woodlands.
A visit to Kentwell is a truly cross-curricular day out - it's not just history. Your students will never stop learning as they encounter the language, science, music, dance, pastimes, skills of a lost age whilst themselves immerse in the period during the time they are at Kentwell. It's not just a case of meeting one or two or a handful of acts, but a whole community sometimes amounting to 200 or more interpreters spread throughout the most authentic range of buildings and facilities. It's a most memorable experience which children may treasure and never forget and for some it will foster later life changing choices.
Make history come alive with our fully immersive living history educational events which will captivate your students’ minds and imagination.
