A Horrible Half-term! When Science meets History

A Horrible Half-term!

Moyse’s Hall are doing something extra special for the school break with a terrific mix of history and science.

Moyse's Hall are going to be having a ‘Horrible Half-term’, all in honour of Horrible Histories author/creator, Terry Deary, writing 6 stories for us which you can now see in the galleries.

Weekday activities
Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri: 10.30am-3pm, no booking required.
• Make “oobleck” goo – the “Non-Newtonian” gore that behaves very odd!
• Make Movie Blood! – great for smearing
• Terrifying Handling – handle real execution, torture, crime and punishment artefacts! All in a family friendly way of course…
