Opportunities for Home Educator Groups & Families
What a lovely day we've had! Incredibly well organised; great, engaging content for the children (and adults) and in such a beautiful historic setting. Highly recommend!

Join us this autumn for another hands-on history workshop for Home Educator families. This is perfect for children aged 7-12. The workshop will take place in the inspirational setting of Mary Arden's Farm, the home of William Shakespeare's mother.
We've had a lovely day experiencing a Tudor Christmas. It was a first introduction to my son to Tudor life and a very positive one.
