We have two workshops set in the Tudor period ~

Preparing for Henry VIII's last marriage to Catherine Parr

The children work with our fully costumed workshop leader and are in role as young apprentices tackling the preparations 
for a banquet at Hampton Court Palace in the days running up to Henry VIII's marriage to Catherine Parr. They learn about 
Henry’s previous marriages, the jobs done in and around the kitchens at Hampton Court Palace, and they then help to 
design a new tapestry for the walls.

The Difference between Rich and Poor in Elizabethan Times

The action takes place in an Elizabethan Tavern. The children are in role as young Elizabethan country children looking 
for work in the City of London. They encounter an Elizabethan tavern owner (see photo left), in full costume, looking for 
apprentices. The children have a lot of fun in role, creating an authentic character while learning everyday facts about 
living, working, schooling, food markets and survival in Elizabethan times, with particular emphasis on the difference 
between rich and poor in those days.
