Throughout the summer holidays your little ones can experience what it was like to grow up and serve in a royal household in medieval times at Knights & Princesses School.
Suitable for children ages 7-14 (approximately), these free classes include lots of hands-on activities to keep them entertained. The classes last for around 40 minutes and take place daily at 11:30, 12:30, 14:00, 15:00 and 16:00. Knights and Princesses School is designed to be inclusive. All children can take part in the same activities – regardless of who they want to be on the day.
Children can learn how to prepare and protect armour, discover the best way to arm and disarm their master before battle, find out the correct way to give a proper and perfect greeting and take part in a have a go Hobby Horse Jousting activity. New for 2019 your kids will also learn how to slay a dragon before receiving their ‘School Certificate’ and being officiated as Knights, Princes and Princesses of Hever Castle.
