All the activities were well thought out and hooked the children… they will remember it for years to come. (Key Stage 2 teacher)

New for 2026 - Anglo-Saxons in Southwell

An learning and activity day in partnership with Southwell Community Archaeology Group. Using evidence, costume, objects and archaeology, we explore the ancient history of Southwell’s Anglo Saxon church, explore the life and burial of those who walked before us and discover how Christianity may have come to Mercia. Email to book. Full day visit, £8 per child.

The children were made to feel happy secure and welcome. They learnt a diverse range of skills bible stories and took part in some excellent role play activities. This was an outstanding visit.
