COVID-19: Time Trips will take all precautions necessary to ensure the safety of children and school staff. At a minimum this will entail following any guidelines laid down by the school, as well as by the government. If in the future any of the Time Trips team develops Covid symptoms, or is exposed to anyone with symptoms, we will postpone the booking.
Why Choose Time Trips?
Each lesson has been carefully designed to engage children with educational and exciting hands-on activities, such as making models and artefacts, role play, drama, and games. The lessons are fully compatible with the curriculum, and are regularly updated and improved.

The creative activities are of a very high standard compared to other history or science workshops. In spite of this the price is lower than the average cost of a school visit, because I (Tony) design all the resources and activities myself, and also because we are all self-employed, so there is no one taking a cut of our fee.

Workshops last a full day and take place mainly in the classroom. Tony is a former history teacher with an MEd and an MSc in child psychology (see Tony's CV). Rachel also has extensive educational and creative experience and skills (see her CV here).
How Time Trips supports the curriculum
You can now read the whole of my novel, Marathon, on this website. I wrote it in 2009 and self-published it. It is a story about two boys and their father who were in the battle of Marathon, and is suitable for older children.
