Workshops: Tudors & Elizabethans

Across these workshops we bring to life Tudor and Elizabethan advancements in naval power and exploration, politics, the church and the changes from old world to new.

Session 1 – Divorced, Decapitated, Died

A comic dramatic presentation of the history of the Tudor Dynasty complete with Kings, Queens, and deaths!

Session 2 – Exploration & Expanding Empire

This session looks at the beginning of the Golden Age of Exploration as we seek to crew a ship with the right characters needed for a long hard sea voyage.

Session 3 – Barbaric Battles

With the use of our amazing foam weapons, musket and cannons, students re-enact a famous battle against the Scots as we examine the era where medieval and modern weapons are used on the battlefield.

Session 4 – Trials & Treason

A wonderfully gory and vivid look at Tudor justice and punishments, touching on the Catholic/Protestant unrest, spies
and plots and the infamous executions of Henry VIII’s wives.

Session 5 – A King’s Tournament

In this finale, we introduce your children to the pageantry, politics and pomp of a Tudor tournament as they compete in jousting, swordfighting and heraldic competitions.

What schools say about us...

"Thank you so much for an amazing day! The kids are still talking about it now and parents have said how much they talked about it when they went home. Both of your Facilitators had a great presence with the children and your behaviour management was spot on. The fact you kept the attention of 90 children for the beginning and the end of the day was fab. The resources were excellent and complemented the learning well. The value for money was great. We just thought it was amazing! We will definitely be booking again for next year."

"The children really enjoyed the day and all of the activities, especially the battles! Your Facilitator did a great job and I really enjoyed the session with the Viking Ship. We will definitely get in touch with you if any other year groups would like your services!"

"We, at NLC had a brilliant time on 3rd Feb with your Victorian Day. The resources you have are amazing and helped make the day even more special. The children spoke about their favourite activities all last week. They thoroughly enjoyed it. We have passed our thoughts to the rest of the staff and recommended you to them. Thanks again for an amazing day."

"We had the most amazing experience with The Past Presents delivering an Ancient Egyptians workshop. The children loved every minute of it and they were all engaged from the minute you arrived to the very end. The tasks were fantastic and brought the whole topic to life for them. The mummification was by far their favourite and most memorable. The closing ceremony for the day was incredible and brought all of their learning to an end in a brilliant way. You were brilliant with all of the children and a font of knowledge for any of their questions. Would definitely recommend!"
