All experiences are run on-site, with each activity designed to suit various age groups and learning styles. Weekday delivery is available, and sessions are tailored to fit within your existing school timetable.

Teachers benefit from:
– Workshops designed to suit different key stages and abilities

Norwich schools value the simplicity Giant Journeys brings. There is no need for complex setup or technical skills. Our team arrives with everything required, from AR tablets and VR headsets to Reggie the T-Rex. All we need is a school hall or large classroom and your preferred timetable.
Workshops are delivered with a clear structure to maintain engagement. For example, in the CSI Journey, pupils begin by learning forensic techniques and progress to solving a simulated mystery. Sessions connect hands-on investigation with real-world applications, helping learning stick.
Each workshop is designed to support rather than add to teacher workload. Facilitators are trained in Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 delivery and know how to engage children at different levels.
We regularly support:
– Topic launches to ignite curiosity
– Themed enrichment weeks for deeper exploration
– End-of-term rewards that combine fun with learning
– Science, STEM and history days linked directly to curriculum targets
These sessions provide excitement and enrichment while reinforcing content in a way pupils remember.
Every classroom is different, and so are the needs of each learner. We work with schools to adapt workshops where required. That includes adjusting the format, content or group sizes to support children with additional needs or sensitivities.
If you are looking for a dynamic way to reach every pupil regardless of background, learning preference or ability, our sessions can be customised to fit.
Pupils do not just sit and watch, they participate, ask questions and explore. Even quiet learners engage and remember what they experience weeks later. These immersive moments help crystallise learning in powerful ways.
The blend of interactive tools and narrative content deepens classroom topics. With support from Giant Journeys, teachers can energise lessons and expand what learning can look like.
Availability for in-school bookings fills fast. Do not miss the chance to give your pupils a day they will be talking about for the rest of the term. Book your primary school workshops in Norwich today and let Giant Journeys deliver unforgettable learning directly to your classroom.
