'Leigh delivered an online chat to our children today, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Despite it being online, he was extremely personable and he interacted brilliantly with the children, showing off artefacts, sharing loads of interesting information and answering questions. I would highly recommend Leigh and hope that we can have him in person in school in the future. Thank you.'

On behalf of everyone in my class, I wanted to thank you for your thoroughly entertaining and informative lessons today. 

I know how difficult it is to run a virtual session, but I think it went really well and there were minimal technical issues. The children particularly enjoyed the first session, they loved seeing all the weapons and hearing all the gruesome details.

Thank you so much for the session on Friday. We all really enjoyed it and learnt such a lot. The feedback was all really positive. 
​
The children particularly enjoyed seeing the weapons and battle formations. They liked having the chance to ask their own questions at the end.

As an international school that follows the British curriculum, it is often hard to immerse our students in the topics that we study. Whilst we work on topics such as The Vikings, The Romans and Space, there are no trips that we can take our students on to fully experience these things.
One silver lining of the coronavirus pandemic was that we found historic workshops who delivered a virtual session as a launch for our topic. We had two sessions with Bjorn the Beardless who was an expert on the Vikings! The session lasted approximately 60 minutes and the children loved every second. Bjorn (Leigh) was extremely knowledgeable and kept the children engaged throughout. The session was done in two parts – part one where Bjorn delivered information about the Vikings and part two where he answered questions that the children had come up with. Both parts were extremely useful, and the children learned a lot!
Now that we know historic workshops can deliver such fantastic sessions virtually, we will continue to use them for our topic launches.
