What does your venue offer for schools?
Are you searching for an immersive educational experience that goes beyond the conventional classroom setting? Look no further than Eden Camp Modern History Theme Museum.
Nestled amidst the historical landscape, Eden Camp offers an award-winning journey through the sights, sounds, and even the smells of life during World War II. It’s not just a museum; it’s an adventure through time.
But what makes Eden Camp truly exceptional is its versatility. While it may be rooted in history, its educational potential extends far beyond. Imagine your students delving into mathematics, English, science, design & technology, citizenship, music, and even physical education, all within the captivating exhibitions of the museum.
For the young adventurers in your group, our junior assault course provides an outlet to release energy, fostering both physical activity and team spirit. And who could resist the charm of our Old Time Music Hall puppet show? Transporting them back to the 1940s, they’ll sing along to the tunes of legends like Vera Lynn, creating memories that blend learning with laughter.
Take the first step toward an unforgettable educational excursion. Visit Eden Camp for more information and start planning your visit today.
