The Great Hall.

The Tudors is the foundation of the programme offered at Sulgrave.

Very much a curriculum based, structured day, a costumed member of the Manor's Education Team meets the children on arrival.

The children and adults will either walk through to the Courtyard Hall or the Brewhouse/Buttery. The children may then put on a 4-piece costume for the day.

During their visit the group will participate in various Tudor presentations, not necessarily in the following order:

	The Royals Our costumed presenters will cover the story of the Tudor dynasty, using role-play. Commencing with Henry VII and following through to the death of Henry VIII or Elizabeth Tudor, some great events of the time will be reenacted including social changes, religion, work and crime.
	The House Tour The children will see the House, begun in 1539. They will spend time in Mr Lawrence Washington's Great Hall, Kitchen and Bedchamber. Aspects of social history within the Tudor period will compare the lives of the rich with the poor, the past and the present; many influences on the people of the time will be covered. The children may be divided into two groups.
	Extras Optional "extra" presentations, if time allows, may include:- music, dance, blacksmith's forge, schoolroom, womens' work.
	Costumes The hiring of individual costumes for your whole group needs to be ordered in advance. Please enquire when telephoning to book a date for your visit.
	Shopping Our popular Gift Shop can fit into your timetable. Alternatively "goodybags" are available to save time.
