Titanic experiences setting sail in September

The world's most iconic ship and one of history's most known tragedies

In April 1912, the most iconic ship of all time set sail for the first and only time.

Our newest history experience takes pupils inside the Titanic story from it's building and launch, through the stories of crew and passengers, to its ultimate sinking and what came after.

Titanic workshops will be in-costume, and for Key Stages 1-3, in-character and will look at:

-- Lifeboats- how many boats and seats

-- The passengers and who was saved

-- Why the ship sank

-- How the ship could have been saved

-- The crew and their choices

-- The rescue ship, SS Carpathia and her captain

-- Who, if anyone, was responsible for the sinking

-- Morse Code and radio

Titanic experiences are available to book for September 2025 and onwards now 

Gunpowder, treason and plot

"Yet I say they shall receive a terrible blow this Parliament; and yet they shall not see who hurts

The Plot is afoot! Dive into the cellars of the House of Lords and let's explore the Gunpowder Plot!

For Key Stage One groups, this includes games including laying a fuse and finding the plotters, puppet-making and making coded letters.

For Key Stage Two and Three, this will also look at the politics and the religious issues surrounding the Plot, our fantastic Building the Plot challenge and can be combined with our Parliament experiences.

For Key Stages Four and Five, the focus is on the Building the Plot and the narrative of why the Plot came to be.


Available for all Year Groups now

Celtic experiences

It's time to organise resistance to the Roman invaders!

The Romans are here and the Celtic tribes are going to stand up and resist!


The Celtic tribes of Britain before the Roman invasion were a complex, spiritual and proud people, with a culture that was older than their invaders. Revering ancient gods, sophisticated tribal structures and with a rich culture tied to their lands, animals and war.

Let our Celtic warrior explain what's at stake, what the Celtic culture is and why the Romans will lose! Learn about Celtic gods, chariots, hillforts and our greatest heroes.


Celtic experiences will include our Interactive Introduction, a craft project, a look at Celtic life and war and a chance to fight the Romans!


Available for Key Stages 2 upwards nationwide across England and Wales now!

1066 and Domesday

The Normans have come!

1066 is possibly the most significant date in English history, William of Normandy led one of the largest armies ever assembled across the Channel and defeated Harald Godwineson at the Battle of Hastings, just weeks after Harald had defeated a Norwegian army at Stamford Bridge in Yorkshire. 

In 1086, William commissioned a great survey of his new kingdom, which he had controlled with his servants, relatives and knights. Although scholars have debated its purpose for nearly a thousand years, it is most likely to be a record of tax liability and patronage for the king to record what he reigned over.


Allow one of William's knights, newly installed on Saxon lands, to guide pupils through the Battle of Hastings, the Harrowing of the North, the convocation of the Domesday Book and the greatest period of castle building in the country's history.
