Learning Session for Home Educators – Time Detectives

Salford Community Leisure

Our popular workshop for schools, Time Detectives, especially for home educators - book your child or children on to take part in a session with other home educated children.
You will be greeted at the entrance by our facilitators who will deliver the first part of the session in the Victorian Gallery. This session is focused on historical enquiry, and the children will be asked to work in groups to try and identify some mystery objects. They will then be taken on a tour of our Victorian street to find out about their objects, and what life would have been like in Victorian times.
