17Cent Me

KS2 17th Century

I offer half day 17th century history education sessions for K.S.2 children, largely similar in character to my half-day Tudor sessions, which see;
  • Plenty of hands-on playing of instruments from my collection - tunes suitable for Cavaliers and Roundheads both.
    (So was Oliver Cromwell really opposed to all music and its pleasures?)

  • Music for listening, played on more instruments

  • Sing some of the more suitable and innocent songs of the period - 17th century songs tend to be very wordy, or bawdy, or both, so I choose with care!

  • Information and stories about the Civil War, and/or the Fire of London if you prefer.

  • Dance, in a style favoured by King Charles II himself!
