In-schools workshops

At Lore & Piece, we are passionate about engaging children with their local heritage.
In-schools workshops
Lore & Piece also offers Curriculum-led workshops, designed to integrate local Cornish heritage with National Curriculum-approved teaching content for Key Stage 1 and 2 History. These Curriculum-led workshops are not listed below, as they are specifically tailored to every single class. With diverse specialisms within Lore & Piece’s core team, we can offer workshops on a myriad of topics, from the Palaeolithic, all the way up to the present day!
All of our workshops promote archaeology as a tool for well-being within our community, and see archaeology as a tangible window into the past, in-line with the values of charities such as the Council for British Archaeology, the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists, and initiatives such as the Festival of Archaeology, and the Young Archaeologists’ Club.
Please contact us to organise an in-schools workshop which perfectly meets your educational needs.
Alternatively, if you would like a free initial consultation meeting with us about your needs, you can schedule a 30-minute meeting through Calendly here:
