Step into the dramatic Tudor court. Students explore Hampton Court Palace, witness the grandeur of Henry VIII's reign, and discover daily life in Tudor England through immersive VR.
The Tudors workshop uses immersive VR to transport Year 5 and 6 students to Tudor England. Children explore the magnificent Hampton Court Palace, experience the court of Henry VIII, and discover daily life in one of history's most fascinating periods.
Students plan Tudor banquets, investigate historical justice and crime, analyse Tudor portraiture, create explorer maps of the age of exploration, and experience Tudor trades and commerce. Through VR and hands-on activities, they understand the grandeur, the intrigue, and the everyday life of Tudor times.
Book a full-day visit and choose a different VR topic for every year group — making it super specific to each class's curriculum and exceptional value for money.
Each session includes a Virtual Reality segment where students are transported back in time. Using class sets of VR headsets, children explore 360° recreations of historical environments — from walking through ancient temples to witnessing the Great Fire of London.
Every activity is designed to bring history to life. Your facilitator selects and adapts activities based on the year group.
