SUMMARY:Amazing Artefacts - Home Educators Monthly Sessions
DESCRIPTION:  \nWelcome to the Winter Season of Amazing Artefacts – Home Educators Monthly Sessions!\nEach month\, we will take part in a variety of different hands on activities inspired by an item from the collections. Each season\, we will explore a new theme\, which for the Winter Season will be ‘Transport’. \nWinter season dates and times are as follows:\nWednesday 13th Dec (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors)\nWednesday 10th Jan (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors)\nWednesday 7th Feb (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors) (please note that February’s date is a slight change from the usual 2nd Wednesday and will be on the 1st Wednesday of the month instead) \nSessions are designed to be active and accessible for a mix of ages and abilities with 2 separate sessions for younger or older children. The morning session will be aimed at slightly younger children aged approximately 5-8\, nicknamed our Juniors\, and the afternoon session will be aimed at the slightly older children aged approximately 9+\, nicknamed our Seniors. If you would like to attend as a family group with mixed ages\, then just pick whichever session you feel would be most suitable for the group as a whole.\nIf you would like to let us know about any specific considerations for your children then we would welcome this\, just get in touch. \nTickets need to be purchased for each child attending\, but grown ups do not need to purchase a separate ticket. It usually works best for the younger or less confident children if grown ups stay and join in with activities. Whereas for older or more confident children it is usually fine for grown ups to not stay in the session\, although they will need to stay within the museum building whilst the session is taking place. Tickets cost £17.50 per child for the 3 month seasonal block and can be booked via Ticketsource or by popping into or phoning the museum directly.\nAttendees will be encouraged to continue their learning at home between sessions and the year will finish with a display of the children’s work from all of the sessions within the museum. \nRusty Club (YAC) Membership – Please note that we occasionally do the same crafts or activities in Rusty Club sessions as we do in Home Educator sessions\, so if you decide to join in with both programmes there may be some sessions with duplicated topics.

SUMMARY:Civic Society Talk – Clough Williams-Ellis: The 1947 Weston Master Plan
DESCRIPTION:Join the Civic Society for their monthly talk. This month’s speaker is Councillor John Crockford-Hawley.\nThe 1947 Development Plan was so radical\, so car orientated and so dismissive of Victorian architecture that nothing short of starting anew was deemed appropriate for the town’s future prosperity. \n“A Garden City By The Sea” had an airing but this hugely controversial plan never left the drawing board (apart from one residential property which was built). \nAnd who were the great national figures behind this plan? The Hon Lionel Brett (Rector of the Royal College of Art and President of the RIBA) and Sir Clough Williams-Ellis (of Portmeirion fame). \nThe story has never really been told and few plans remain in existence but Councillor John Crockford-Hawley has researched the fascinating and controversial subject\, recreated plans from the old documents and produced a fully illustrated PowerPoint presentation especially for Weston Civic Society. \nPart of the Heritage Talk series thanks to support from Historic England and the High Street Heritage Action Zone. \nTimes:\ndoors open 19:00\ntalk starts 19:30 \nCost:\nAll are welcome – entrance is free to members\, and £2.00 for non-members.

SUMMARY:Amazing Artefacts - Home Educators Monthly Sessions
DESCRIPTION:  \nWelcome to the Spring Season of Amazing Artefacts – Home Educators Monthly Sessions!\nEach month\, we will take part in a variety of different hands on activities inspired by one or more items from the collections. Each season\, we will explore a new theme\, which for the Spring Season will be ‘Toys and Games’. \nSpring season dates and times are as follows:\nWednesday 13th Mar (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors)\nWednesday 10th April (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors)\nWednesday 8th May (10:30-11:30 Juniors\, 12-1 Seniors) \nSessions are designed to be active and accessible for a mix of ages and abilities with 2 separate sessions for younger or older children. The morning session will be aimed at slightly younger children aged approximately 5-8\, nicknamed our Juniors\, and the afternoon session will be aimed at the slightly older children aged approximately 9+\, nicknamed our Seniors. If you would like to attend as a family group with mixed ages\, then just pick whichever session you feel would be most suitable for the group as a whole.\nIf you would like to let us know about any specific considerations for your children then we would welcome this\, just get in touch. \nTickets need to be purchased for each child attending\, but grown ups do not need to purchase a separate ticket. It usually works best for the younger or less confident children if grown ups stay and join in with activities. Whereas for older or more confident children it is usually fine for grown ups to not stay in the session\, although they will need to stay within the museum building whilst the session is taking place. Tickets cost £18 per child for the 3 month seasonal block and can be booked via Ticketsource or by popping into or phoning the museum directly.\nAttendees will be encouraged to continue their learning at home between sessions and the year will finish with a display of the children’s work from all of the sessions within the museum. \nRusty Club (YAC) Membership – Please note that we do some of the same crafts or activities in Rusty Club sessions as we do in Home Educator sessions\, so if you decide to join in with both programmes there may be some sessions with duplicated topics\, so we tend to advise choosing one programme or the other.

SUMMARY:Heritage Talk - Oral History at Weston Museum
DESCRIPTION:“Everybody has a story!  The rich and famous are all recorded by the media of the time\, whether it be the ballads of days of old\, encyclopedias or modern day electronic communications.  What I like to collect are the stories of the ordinary people that make up 99.9% of the world we live in.  I will be talking about the sense of privilege that I feel when these people let me into their lives.  There will be some anecdotes\, some very poignant and some plain outrageous.  I look forward to seeing you there”. \nChris Fisher\, Museum Volunteer

SUMMARY:Heritage Talk - Oral History at Weston Museum
DESCRIPTION:“Everybody has a story!  The rich and famous are all recorded by the media of the time\, whether it be the ballads of days of old\, encyclopedias or modern day electronic communications.  What I like to collect are the stories of the ordinary people that make up 99.9% of the world we live in.  I will be talking about the sense of privilege that I feel when these people let me into their lives.  There will be some anecdotes\, some very poignant and some plain outrageous.  I look forward to seeing you soon.” \nChris Fisher\, Museum Volunteer
