Medieval Market-Not available during 2010
‘Hear Ye! Hear Ye!’ Students will set up and run a stall within a medieval market setting. Students will undertake bartering and trading in the manner appropriate to the times. A lively, loud interactive experience which focuses on many aspects of the curriculum as students work with and alongside others, negotiating costs prices and completing ‘fair’ trades. Great programme for developing the Key Competencies.
