The students gained “an appreciation for our mining heritage and an understanding of this period in our history, as well as consolidating their learning on types of rocks from previous years.”
We’re thrilled to hear how much the children from Tregadillett Primary School benefited from their recent workshop exploring the heritage of Cornwall’s mining and minerals with our Education and Outreach Manager, Caroline.
This workshop was sponsored by Cornish Metals, and we’re hugely grateful for its support.
The children had a great time delving into Cornwall’s geology and industrial past. The big smiles really do say it all!
This is what their teachers said…
“[The] children were so engaged throughout. It was very interactive, with lots of objects to handle and ask questions about.”
“It was inclusive to all learners.”
“Caroline was engaging and knowledgeable.”
We offer a wide range of classroom-based workshops as part of our ‘Discovery Programme’, with hands-on activities that aim to bring Cornwall’s history and heritage to life. These range from prehistoric jewellery making to exploring Cornish folklore and can cater for all ages and abilities.
