Home Educators Workshop - Stone Age

Two Neolithic handtools

Location - St John's House
Date - Monday 14 July from 9.45am to 12noon

Join us for a relaxed morning exploring the changes across the Stone Age, with a particular focus on the Warwickshire landscape.

We will start together for an introduction to the different periods of the Stone Age. There will then be the opportunity to take part in different sessions and hands-on activities exploring the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic periods in more detail.

Sessions led by our group leaders include the Palaeolithic landscape of the Bytham river and a Mesolithic settlement. Self-led activities looking at Neolithic food and tools will be available throughout the morning for you to take part in at your own pace.

Please arrive at 9.45am for a 10am start. On arrival you will be able to sign up for the group leader-led sessions, which last between 30 to 60 minutes each.

Tickets £8.50 plus booking fee per child. Suitable for children aged 6 to 11 years (Key Stage 2 equivalent).
