Learning Workshops

Join us to explore the rich local heritage throughout the South of England. The Rural Life Living Museum offers a captivating glimpse into the countryside, showcasing exhibits that span from 1750 to 1960. All our workshops and demonstrations are as hands-on as possible for your class to be immersed in their learning. Museum led workshops last 45 minutes and schools usually book between two or three a day for their students.

You can download our booking form here and email schools@rural-life.org.uk with your completed form to book your group in.
