Workshops
Please see the workshops that we offer at Big Stories HQ - No prior knowledge is needed for these workshops as it is our job to take
the students on a magical historical quest. They are catered to different Key Stages however we are happy to offer bespoke workshops.
The 1066 workshop is a huge hit with pupils
in Reception - Year 2.
They will go on a historical quest to find out about Medieval Life, The problems of being a king and of course the epic battles of 1066. We will tailor make our workshop to the needs of the age group! We will also bring all our props and of course some big Historians badges.
