Wellbeing

about this session

Key stage 1, key stage 2, key stage 3 | Subject: Wellbeing | Topics: Keeping well in the past and now | Session type: Route-based (gardens), seasonal

Activity-based walk through the magnificent historic gardens of Hampton Court Palace.

This sensory session takes advantage of the beauty and tranquility of the varied historical gardens of the palace and will give students the opportunity to take time out of ordinary curriculum-based learning. Students will be encouraged to use their senses to understand and appreciate the value of the natural world and the joys of an outdoor excursion, developing a sense of inner calm.

Through the topic of ‘keeping well in the past and now’, the session aims to nurture students’ social skills and emotional wellbeing in a safe and neutral space. The carefully developed activities and group tasks have been created to enable whole classes to connect with one another.

The session has been adapted to suit key stage 1, 2 and 3 audiences. Key stage 1 teachers may request a shorter, 45 minute version of the session at point of booking.

The presenter will deliver the session out of costume.
