Key Stage 1
At the Museum your pupils will not only love exploring the interactive displays, but they can also experience a range of education sessions designed to stimulate enquiring minds. Sessions are challenging and highly interactive, with pupils engaged in making things, investigating and role play.
Key Stage 1 visits take place from 10:00 to 14:00 and cost cost £250 per class (group of up to 30 children). Bring two classes on the day for a cost of £225 per class (£450 total). Your visit includes an interactive show and guided exploration of the Museum, as well as time to explore the Waterworks Gallery and Splash Zone (weather dependent). As we are a small museum, we are only able to accommodate a maximum of 60 pupils per day.
Our Key Stage 1 shows and workshops
Victorian Washday
Pupils will explore, using real museum objects, how the Victorians did their clothes washing. They will consider the effort involved and how machinery, through time, has changed and automated the process.
Mrs Tristram’s Wonderful Water Show
The pupils will travel back in time and learn about the history of making London’s water supply clean. Through role play and museum displays, they will think about clean and dirty water sources, as well as how water is purified and pumped into people’s homes.
***Booking dependent on facilitator availability. Please declare interest for this program when enquiring.
Super Soggy Science Show
This interactive and fun show explores where water comes from, the ‘monster soup’ of 200 years ago, and how we can clean water using a simple filter!
