If you’re looking for hands-on learning experiences that ignite curiosity and boost engagement, then curriculum-based school workshops in Coventry are the perfect solution. Giant Journeys delivers immersive, interactive sessions designed for Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 pupils. These workshops cover science, history, culture, and active learning in exciting ways and are all brought directly to your school, with no setup required on your part.
We’re committed to making everyday learning feel extraordinary. Whether your pupils are excavating fossils, touring the solar system, or experiencing the human body from the inside out, our sessions are designed to make learning stick.
When the Giant Journeys team arrives, we bring everything needed to deliver a compelling, curriculum-linked experience. Each session runs with one class at a time, so it fits neatly into your schedule without disruption. Whether pupils are building a skeleton, decoding WWII ciphers, or meeting a life-sized T-Rex, our workshops deliver age-appropriate content through hands-on exploration.
We handle all setup and equipment, including VR headsets, AR-ready tablets, props, costumes, and display pieces. There’s no technical expertise needed by your staff. We make sure everything runs smoothly so your pupils can focus on learning.
Each workshop has a specific learning goal and is rooted in the curriculum. Popular session highlights for Coventry schools include:
CSI Journey
Children become forensic investigators, examining a staged crime scene to solve a diamond theft. By analysing blood patterns, fibres and DNA samples, pupils explore real-world science in a thrilling and tactile way.
Jurassic Dig Journey
Pupils uncover dinosaur fossils in a supervised dig and use AR devices to bring dinosaurs to life right on their screens. Reggie the animatronic T-Rex can also make an appearance to make the day even more unforgettable.
WW2 Codebreaking Journey
Set during Operation Sea Lion, this workshop helps pupils decode hidden wartime messages using Morse Code and cipher wheels. It’s a perfect companion to Remembrance Week or a history module focused on modern conflict.
Dinosaur Visit Assembly
A full-school gathering where Reggie the roaming T-Rex and his baby sister make an interactive appearance. This works brilliantly with the Jurassic Dig Journey as a way to recap or build excitement.
Our sessions connect pupils to big topics in relevant, dynamic ways. Whether they are stepping into the world of Ancient Olympia or exploring microscopic life forms through VR, every experience is designed to develop confidence, communication, and an enduring interest in the subject.

Our full-day format is designed to fit your needs. Each class gets an uninterrupted, fully supported experiential session that reinforces classroom learning. You provide the space, and we do the rest. It’s that simple.
There’s no need for buses, packed lunches or paperwork. All workshops take place in your school hall or large classroom. This helps reduce admin effort while still giving pupils an exciting change of scene that feels different and special.
We work with primary schools across Coventry to tailor sessions for your year groups. From Reception to Year 6, every session is built to be age-appropriate and inclusive. For example, during a recent visit to a Coventry school, our Jurassic Dig Journey helped pupils embed evolution and classification skills in a KS2 science module. Pupils were confidently identifying characteristics and explaining what they found long after the session ended.
Giant Journeys takes pride in enhancing the hard work teachers are already doing. We’re a partner in bringing topics to life, not another item on your to-do list. Our workshops give children a memorable, teacher-supported way to deepen their understanding of core and cross-curricular subjects.
