Our Knights & Castles Workshops include artefacts to touch, games to play, videos to see and movement to help engage all of their senses and bring over 1,000 years of Knights & Castles to life!
Handling Artefacts
Your class will have the opportunity to touch, hold & handle different artefacts & items
In a single Standard Session our core content will be covered
& your pupils being able to briefly touch a range of artefacts
If you opt for Spectacular Sessions or book any timetable that goes over two hours the children will also be able to split into groups and handle a range of artefacts, draw them and write about them
A full day with one group? That’s the very best we can offer, and allows everything mentioned above plus an extra session of studying fragile artefacts up close, being able to write about and draw them and then finishing the day off with an extra topic related activity based on the children’s attention span & interest
Knights & Castles Workshops are the perfect topic hook for your Knights & Castles topic!

Dan Tastic Education provided us with a great Knights & Castles Workshop! The workshop facilitator had great enthusiasm, keeping the young children engaged for the duration of the workshop. The workshop was very informative and the children really enjoyed exploring some of the different artefacts and items brought to the workshop! Would highly recommend!
We've had Dan Tastic Education visit us on more than one occasion this year; working with year groups across the school, covering a range of different themes. These have ranged from Superheroes with the whole of our EYFS (including Nursery children), Knights & Castles with Year 1 and a very impressive Stars and Stripes suit for the USA unit with Year 4 children. Without exception, every child and member of staff was impressed. We would recommend Dan Tastic Education workshops without hesitation!
Dan Tastic Education came to our school today and ran an excellent workshop on Knights & Castles for Year 1. It was fun, interactive and the children were hooked. I can thoroughly recommend this company to colleagues in primary education.
Another great Knights & Castles Day. The children and staff loved the workshop. Dan Tastic Education was funny and engaging. The session was very informative and we learnt a lot!
