Outreach Visits

We provide outreach opportunities (where we visit your setting), working with educational settings, schools and teachers to take our Estate’s unique history into classrooms. Our outreach programme has been carefully designed to align with the national curriculum and to support schools by providing a range of workshops for all ages – from Early Years through to post-16.

Assemblies

A focus on how we learn about history, starting with the very recent past and progressing to the distant past.

A brief introduction to the Romans - focussing on what we know about those who settled in the Nene valley and the local people who became Romanised.

Workshops

An inquiry-based focusing on how archaeologists learn about the past despite the scarcity of evidence for this time period.

An enquiry-based workshop focusing on investigating original roman artefacts.

During this workshop, students will investigate the different techniques that archaeologists use to investigate the distant past.
