Our Home-school Educational Programme provides a new and fascinating alternative to sports-themed clubs and other after-school activities for children. This specific Home-school Educational Programme is ideal for children aged 7 +. If your child is a curious explorer with a thirst for knowledge about their past, why not let them delve into the fascinating world of archaeology? Our clubs are run during the school-term, and they introduce children to the mysteries and adventures of our past in a fun, practical and hands-on way.
