Trebuchet Challenge (SEND families)

How did science help to defend a castle? Discover the medieval engineering that powered trebuchets. Have a go at making and firing your own mini model.

This is a relaxed SEND session of the Trebuchet Challenge activities running 19 - 22 August. Booking is required to keep numbers at a relaxed level.

You will first enjoy watching some interactive roleplay with our team. You'll then get to have a go at the activities!

Free, but booking required for the SEND session at https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/wakefield-museums-castles/trebuchet-challenge-send-families/e-rgblvm
