It's 7 am, you wake excited, wondering who will be your new teacher? what your friends have been doing over the summer? If the school has finally built the longest slide ever in the playground?? Uniform, snack and new bright shoes. Everything is ready to go back to school!
Good old days for most of us! That is why we have decided to make 'Back to School' our monthly theme for September. Feel free to comment below this post or e-mail us a new post related to the theme: new courses, your thoughts around current issues in heritage/museum/arts education, historical facts about education and schools in history... From now on, school groups will come back to visit the Palace and have fun learning about history.
We will also be introducing some discussions on the online forum that we would love for you to get involved in. It is very easy to comment, you just need to sign up using your e-mail address or your Facebook or Google+ account. You can find more information in this useful guide here.
At Fulham Palace we have our own way to go back to school through adult-learning workshops, events and talks. Have a look at the upcoming learning opportunities and book your place:
