St Albans Cathedral Education Centre offers activities for students of all Key Stages and beyond. Using role-play, artefacts, experiential learning and the building itself, students encounter the stories and history of St Albans Cathedral and learn in new and inspiring ways through a variety of trails and workshops.
Covering a range of curriculum areas, including History, RS, Art & Design, PSHE/Citizenship, Maths, English, Science and Geography, a fascinating and thought-provoking day in this magnificent setting can provide new skills, deeper understanding and a stimulus for further study.
Newly launched for 2021, and ideal for Key Stage 2, St Albans Cathedral will be able to offer Virtual Workshops to schools out of the area which run live from the Cathedral. Allowing students to engage with the building, its purpose and its history in an entertaining, interactive way. Lasting approximately 45 minutes and using a variety of artefacts, costume and resources, the 2 workshops currently on offer are: History: Meet a Roman Soldier and RE: What do Christians believe? Guided Cathedral tour.
