About

Join us at Segedunum Roman Fort for two Pre-historic Home Educators sessions. 

In the morning (10am until 11.30am), step back in time with Gratta from the Brigantes as the gallery is transformed into a Celtic home. Children will explore the art, beliefs and ways of life of tribal Britons. 

They will learn about the different types of food they ate compared to the Romans, decorate their hands, make a knot bracelet and learn how to build a wattle fence. To finish, the children will settle in around a crackling fire to hear the story of Boudica.

In the afternoon (12.30pm until 2pm), take a potter's tour through time and discover the skills of the ancients. Have a go at making a Bronze Age pot based on the characteristic features and designs of that period.

Session numbers are capped, so book soon to secure your space.  

These sessions are aimed at KS2 level children. We ask that parents accompany their children and are responsible for them during the visit. We suggest that younger siblings aren’t in attendance, except for babes in arms. This is due to limited room capacity.
