We have been given a wealth of images that Anne Burton took of a ‘day in the life of’ volunteers working on site in the hours before the school children arrive. Do have a look – I have put them all under the ‘Volunteers’ page. Follow this link to the page https://www.handsonheritage.co.uk/volunteers/preparing-for-a-school-visit/
Our school visits this year have been a great hit thanks to the volunteers’ hard work and the delightful children and their staff. Each day has had its highlights and the children were great fun and eager to learn all about the skills demonstrated in the workshops. They all had a chance to practice those skills and everyone took something, they had made, home with them.
They are some more pictures of the activities on School Days 2021
We are re opening our forest site following the easing of COVID 19 restrictions. However we will need some time to tidy the site and bring it up to scratch. Once we have done this we will start working towards re opening for school visits.
Please get in touch with our schools co ordinator, Judy Powell, schools.handsonheritage.co.uk to let us know if you are interested in coming to use the site in the months to come.
We welcome all enquiries for this and next academic year so please contact us to discuss what we can do for you.
