City classes - Leuven Children visiting for two days the middle ages in a town with history
Leuven / Louvain • Medieval city • Capital of the former duchy of Brabant
2006: start of city classes New concept of school visits : • 2 days with the entiry classgroup • In a city, not at sea or in the countryside • With an historic theme: middle ages • On # exceptionel locations in Leuven • In cooperation with several heritage organisations
program • A cyclus of 5 workshops: 1. to feast with style (costumes) 2. a city game (monuments)3. listening to wispering paper (city archives)4. the legend of ‘fiere Margriet’ (music)5. medieval people in Museum M (art)
program A medieval dinner (In cooperation with the students of the hotel school) A night walk with torches (sleeping in the youth hostel)
evaluation • Very postive: each year over 10 classes • Risk of the much ‘customers’ • Nice formula to generate visibility in schools • stopped in 2011 (to much routine)
