ACTON SCOTT HISTORIC WORKING FARM A Farming Year
RHYME AROUND THE FARM EYFS/Year 1
KS1/2 KS1
The beautiful setting of Acton Scott Farm provides a rich learning environment for the very young. Our traditional story tours are full of hands-on activities, action rhymes and songs to encourage co-ordination, creativity, linguistic challenges and vocabulary development.
Through practical activities in the farmyard and fields, children develop an understanding of how a mixed farm works and how the animals are cared for throughout the farming year.
NEW!
(available June – October)
Who will help me to plant the corn…? Bring the story to life with an interactive farm tour accompanied by the little red hen and the lazy rat, cat & pig. Follow a loaf of bread on a funfilled journey from field to fork.
The Secret Life of Plants KS1
The Ploughman’s Lunch

The Ploughman is hungry! Can you help us to find the ingredients to make his lunch? In this interactive farm tour children find out about daily life on the farm and discover where food comes from. They meet the animals, find out what they eat and why they are kept. They collect newlaid eggs, mill wheat into flour and turn the churn to make butter. It’s a race to gather all the ingredients we need to feed the hungry ploughman…can we get his lunch ready on time?
A wonderful experience for children & staff…animal handling; holding chicks, getting to know Joe & Charlie the shire horses and best of all cart rides with Dusty the donkey. Many thanks Christchurch Pre-school

Bring the story to life by visiting our pigs, snug in their brick-built sty, and all their farmyard friends. Then try making homes of straw, wood and bricks to see which material is best. Can the children construct a home so strong that even a wolf can’t blow it down?
KS1
During this interactive workshop children will be introduced to a range of different animals and consider how the appearance and diet of the animals are well suited to the habitats in which they live. Activities include hunting for camouflaged woolly worms, imagining life as a mole underground on a blindfold trail and a woodland minibeast hunt. The session concludes with children “becoming” particular animals and deciding on the perfect home - especially if you can eat you neighbours!
The Power of Plants KS2
Children are introduced to oak trees, how to identify them and their important role in providing homes and food for wildlife. They gain an understanding of how plants grow from seeds and the importance of water and light in growth. Practical activities, such as bark rubbing, colour palettes and a scavenger hunt introduce them to a variety of common species and provide the opportunity to name and understand the different parts of plants.
Children will learn the importance of plants through games and practical activities that illustrate conditions required for growth as well as plant structure and function. Construction of a wheel of food chains also underlines our reliance on green plants and, ultimately, the sun for energy. The session culminates in the construction of a human tree!
KS2
‘
Harvest Home
Discover how a farmer worked in the past and the impact of farming on the environment. Through practical activities, children gain an understanding of the economics of farming, and learn how the farm relied on both horse and human energy to survive.
Thank you so much! We weren’t expecting to be so hands on with the animals! Our children loved it! You have given us some lasting memories. The day ran so smoothly and you were very attentive. Will definitely be returning!

SHROPSHIRE ARCHIVES SCHOOLS WORKSHOP PROGRAMME A visit to Shropshire Archives gives students the chance to look at a wide range of original archive documents as well as microfiche sources, books, maps, CD ROMs, etc.
KS2
Evacuee at Acton Scott KS2
Uncover and interpret evidence found above and below ground to trace the story of Acton Scott’s farming community over two thousand years. Hands-on activities reinforce the children’s observations: they mill wheat into flour on a quern, spin wool, sort Roman finds, pull the plough and lend a hand in the farmyard.
Newly-arrived evacuees are quickly organised by Acton Scott’s efficient billeting officer, Mrs. Mainwaring. Once identity cards, suitcases and gas masks have been checked, they practise the air raid drill before being set to work in the fields. Then there’s time to reflect as they write their first letter home.

Original Olympians
Florence Nightingale
More than 1000 years ago, fearsome Viking raiders sailed up the River Severn and into Shropshire. Who were they, where did they come from, and why did they come here? This fun workshop uncovers some of the mysteries of the Viking age, with a chance to handle Viking kit, hear tales of Viking gods and goddesses, and to re-enact some of the struggles between the Vikings and their Shropshire foes!
‘
EYFS/ KS1 Fossils and Dinosaurs
KS1 TOYS
Children discover how Egyptian objects can tell us about the life and beliefs of this ancient civilisation. They draw on a variety of sources to find out what the ancient Egyptians believed about life after death before reconstructing the process of mummification.
We all agreed that the best part of the morning was when we had a chance to dress up like Ancient Egyptians. We also liked looking at the artefacts and replicas. We couldn’t believe that some of these objects were more than 2000 years old – that’s nearly as old as Miss Edwards! We loved, loved, loved the chance to play out the mummification process…. We would like to thank you for your time and expertise and we believe this is a great way to start our Autumn term topic
Worfield Primary School
Children become paleontologists digging up and identifying bones, looking closely at real fossils, placing dinosaurs on a timeline and investigating the varying sizes of dinosaurs in relation to themselves and other creatures.
Viking Raiders
‘
Designed to develop investigative skills, children will discover how archaeology can teach us about life in the past. Through handling a wide range of original Roman artefacts and dressing up in replica costume, they will see the wealth and variety of material that has survived from the Roman invasion of Britain.
Fantastic hands-on approach really suited our children Oakwood School
‘
DIG IT! -
After School History Club Looking for an after school club? Children take a tour through time and solve a history mystery each week as we delve into the past in our hands-on history club. Find out whether Roman soldiers wore socks with their sandals, why Charles Darwin ate a brown owl and whether the Ancient Egyptians were kind to their mummies. This six week after school club is run by members of the learning team from Shropshire Museums and explores a different history topic each week. Sessions involve craft, drama & role play and an opportunity to handle real museum objects. There will be a visit to Shrewsbury Museum & Art Gallery in week 6.
Anglo-Saxons
Contact us for more information
Children reconstruct a typical Anglo-Saxon grave to find out what burials tell us about the beliefs, way of life, crafts and technology of Anglo-Saxon invaders and settlers. The grave of an ordinary Saxon is then compared to the royal burial at Sutton Hoo.

BOOKING INFORMATION
The Anglo Saxon burial activity was an excellent way to introduce the importance of archaeology to the children. The Viking role-play, complete with dressing up, immersed the pupils and helped them to relate to that period in history. In particular they loved the mock battle! Lightmoor Primary School

SHREWSBURY FLAXMILL MALTINGS
WORKSHOP PROGRAMME AT A GLANCE
Mill Apprentice Experience
LEGO® Education Simple Machines – Pulley Power
KS1/2
Children as young as nine years old worked at Shrewsbury Flax Mill. Some were supplied under the apprenticeship system from orphanages, the local workhouse and further afield.
KS2 Shrewsbury Flaxmill Maltings is a pioneering building of the Industrial Revolution. Built from 1796, the Main Mill is the world’s first iron-framed building - a building that has helped shape the skyline of every major city in the world. During this hands-on workshop children will investigate the reasons for constructing the mill with this innovative ‘new’ material and look at the ways the entrepreneurial John Marshall utilised steam power to turn the machinery of this fascinating factory.
This cross-curricular workshop allows pupils to investigate historical events, people and places in their own locality and will encourage children to pose historically valid questions about change, cause, similarity and difference, and significance.
BOOKING INFORMATION For information and to book contact: E:
[email protected] T: 01743 258881 • Workshop sessions last two hours, include a tour of the mill and cost £95 per class • Mill tours (without a booked workshop) are available Monday - Thursday. Tours last one hour. Booking essential • One adult per six paying pupils will be admitted free of charge and other accompanying adults charged at the child entry rate (£1.50). Booking essential.

Children will use LEGO® Education Simple Machines kits to actively investigate the forces at work in the mill, recognising that some mechanisms, including pulleys and gears, allow a smaller force to have a greater effect.
We thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to the Flaxmill and felt the children gained a lot from the variety of experiences from the initial presentation through the tour and then the practical element. We look forward to booking again for next year! Oxon Primary School
‘
During this interactive two hour workshop children will discover what life was like for a child apprentice living and working at Shrewsbury Flax Mill in the early 19th century. Children will adopt a role, dress in costume and try out some of the daily tasks performed by a hard–working mill apprentice. Our young visitors will compare their life with children in the past and via documentary evidence decide whether working conditions were good or bad for young mill apprentices.
Why not combine your visit to Shrewsbury Flax Mill with a visit to Shrewsbury Museum & Art Gallery? The Friends of Flaxmill Maltings were formed in August 2010 in response to public consultation and growing interest and enthusiasm in the development of the Flax Mill Maltings amongst the community. Their vision is that Shrewsbury Flax Mill Maltings is brought back to life at the heart of the community. To find out more visit www.flaxmill-maltings.co.uk
