New KS2 workshop: Journeys to Oxford at the Museum of Oxford

The Museum of Oxford has launched a new Key Stage 2 workshop, Journeys to Oxford, now available for school bookings.

This engaging workshop explores the stories of four people who have come to Oxford and how migration has shaped the city over time. Using real objects, personal stories and discussion, pupils investigate contrasting journeys to Oxford, developing their historical enquiry skills and empathy, while using Oxford as a local case study linked to national and global themes.
