Stone age workshops for schools across cheshire

Bring the Stone Age to life in your classroom with a fully immersive, curriculum-linked workshop delivered directly to your school in Cheshire. The History Guy provides hands-on Stone Age experiences that go far beyond a typical workshop — giving pupils the chance to step into prehistoric Britain and truly experience how people lived.

Each session is designed to feel like a real journey into the past. Your school grounds are transformed into a Stone Age encampment, complete with a large yurt-style structure, authentic cave-style artwork, and carefully selected materials — no plastic, no gimmicks, just a setting that feels real from the moment pupils step inside.

Schools across Cheshire choose this experience because it removes the need for transport while delivering something far more memorable than a traditional trip. Pupils stay on site, but experience a full-day, high-impact workshop that is active, engaging, and built around doing rather than just listening.

Sessions are regularly delivered across Cheshire, including Chester, Warrington, Crewe, Macclesfield, Northwich, and Ellesmere Port.

What makes this workshop different for Cheshire schools

  • A genuinely immersive experience
    Your school grounds are transformed into a working Stone Age encampment — not a classroom talk, but a full environment pupils step into.

  • Fully curriculum-linked learning
    Designed specifically for KS2, helping pupils understand how people lived, survived, and adapted during the Stone Age.

  • Completely hands-on
    Every pupil takes part — handling real materials, using tools, and actively engaging with the experience throughout the day.

  • Work with authentic tools and materials
    Flint, bone, natural fibres and traditional techniques — no plastic replicas or mass-produced props.

  • Delivered outdoors (where possible)
    Perfect for schools across Cheshire with access to outdoor space, creating a far more engaging and memorable setting.

  • Take part in real Stone Age crafts
    Including practical activities that mirror how people would have created tools, art, and everyday objects.

  • Explore survival, hunting and cave art
    Pupils don’t just learn about the Stone Age — they experience the key skills and challenges of prehistoric life.
