Workshop Summary

Our practitioners bring your Ancient Egypt topic to life by taking your class on an "absolutely fantastic" time-travelling educational escapade to Ancient Egypt. 

Our "wonderful, inspiring, language-rich" 'Ancient Egypt: A Time Travel Tour' workshop, will engage, entertain and educate your students by incorporating drama activities, role-play, live performance and storytelling. 

We utilise the structure and interactivity of a drama workshop to bring history to life for all. This style of workshop is "refreshing and ensures all are able to participate". And our experienced practitioners keep the session "jam-packed with facts".

Your students will use their acting skills to become the visual aids and assist in their peers' learning experience! This guarantees your pupils will be "raving about it".

 

We promise "lots of learning and lots of laughs!". As one teacher told us, regards their student's experience; "It has been magical for them."
