Guided by Sally, our enthusiastic archaeologist, through improvisation, role play and poetry, the children will travel back in time to explore this fascinating prehistoric period, discovering how it developed from the chaotic to the domestic. During the workshop, the children will create pictures from The Stone Age in order to get a sense of the start, middle and end of this period. In pairs, they will explore and vocalise how 'First Humans' may have communicated with one another and using pictures for inspiration, create a Stone Age timeline. We will invite you to the Stone Age ‘Dragon’s Den’ and discuss what would have been a useful invention of the time, whilst Imagining life in a Stone Age settlement!
Our workshops include tailored, fully interactive, drama games, role play, team work exercises, songs, movement and more, led by a professional costumed actor.
All of our workshops involve improvisation, role play, singing and movement all of which are tailored to the chosen topic.
Prices start at £130 for a single workshop (online), or £295 on-site for a single 2 hour workshop, with discounts available when multiple sessions are booked. Whether on-site or online, we are also able to deliver two different topics to different year groups on the same day.
Whether it's a history topic, creative writing workshop, PSHE or an opportunity to celebrate a significant person or event, let us help you to inspire learning with a Drama Hut workshop.
"We enjoyed exploring the Stone Age led by the archaeologist (Sally Spade). The children also thoroughly enjoyed getting into character, dressing up and creating caves/dens. The interaction was managed really well and the children felt they were very much part of the lesson."
Through drama, children are able to experience a subject, complementing and enhancing their learning in the classroom. The Drama Hut was founded in 2012, as a resource for primary schools, to help bring the curriculum to life and support learning. Whether you choose to have us visit you online or on-site, our workshops are delivered live, offering an interactive learning experience for all primary school aged children throughout the United Kingdom and abroad.
We require a clear space to work in and at least one member of staff to be present. We work with a maximum of 30 children at a time, unless prearranged with the school.
