During this immersive workshop, children will delve into the origins of both the Suffragist and Suffragette movements, exploring the challenges they faced and how they fought back against opposition. They'll create a timeline of key events that paved the way to women winning the vote, learn a powerful song sung at Suffragette gatherings, and take part in an unforgettable rally — singing, chanting, marching, and proudly joining the fight for equality.
Y2 - Y6

This workshop was absolutely excellent, I couldn’t recommend it enough. The actor brought the story of the suffragettes to life in a way which was immersive and fun, but also had really clear learning outcomes. Our students ended up using the call and response (oh dear, what could the matter be…) and the deeds not words chant in their final performance on the Friday. It was clear that the messages had really sunk in and had a profound effect on the children. The actor was so energetic and delivered every section so smoothly. She also did a great job of navigating anachronistic or silly answers from students while staying in character. Thank you so much!
Through drama, children are able to experience a subject, complementing and enhancing their learning in the classroom. The Drama Hut was founded in 2012, as a resource for primary schools, to help bring the curriculum to life and support learning. Whether you choose to have us visit you online or on-site, our workshops are delivered live, offering an interactive learning experience for all primary school aged children throughout the United Kingdom and abroad.
We require a clear space to work in and at least one member of staff to be present. We work with a maximum of 30 children at a time, unless prearranged with the school.
