Step back in time and give your students an unforgettable insight into the history of their local area with an educational visit to Whitehall Historic House or Honeywood Museum.
Our formatted self-led visits provide an opportunity to learn about everyday life in Tudor Cheam at Whitehall, or the history of Victorian Carshalton at Honeywood. Groups can explore our fascinating galleries and engage in hands-on activities with our current Schools Offer:
Victorian Carshalton - half Day Session (1.5 hs), appropriate for KS2, years 3 - 6
What will our visit be like?
Teachers will be provided with downloadable / printable resources ahead of visits to ensure links to curriculum lesson planning e.g. information sheets, trail sheets etc. On arrival, groups will be greeted by Volunteers who will provide brief introductions to each site and the visit theme, as well access to appropriate on site resources e.g. handling collections.
