St Albans Cathedral’s Virtual History Workshops
Key Info
St Albans Cathedral’s virtual History workshops.
Join St Albans Cathedral as they introduce a variety of characters from the past, right into the heart of your classroom in these live, interactive workshops. Ideal for Key Stage 2 and lasting up to 60 minutes, each workshop covers a different period of history, including Romans, Saxons, Vikings, the Medieval Monastery, Tudors and Victorians. Interviewed by their intrepid reporter and questioned by your own students, each character uses a range of artefacts to bring the past to life.
