Stone Age to Iron Age

Take your pupils back in time to the Neolithic period with a drama workshop which tracks the history of the UK through the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age.

If you are exploring this period of history with your pupils a drama workshop can really support your pupils’ learning and development, helping them remember key facts and dates while exploring how people lived and developing empathy and understanding.

Through our exciting and participatory drama workshops, children immerse themselves in the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age, learning about how life changed and progressed during these periods including the development of homes, communities and tools as well as considering some of the mysteries including stone circles.

Getting the best out of your Stone Age to Iron Age drama workshop

Our workshops need to take place in the school hall ideally, securing this space for the day of the workshop will help it run really smoothly (we can absolutely move into a classroom for lunchtime set up if needed)
Make sure a teacher or TA will be present in the workshop to support the pupils and help us understand their needs.
If you would like pupils to dress up we are happy for you to do this! We don’t provide costumes (as we don’t feel they are needed for the learning to take place) but we can always help with ideas of what to wear if you want to do this.
