King Henry VIII spent much of his childhood at Eltham Palace and the activities this week will all be about learning to become a Prince. Get active with jousting – a key part of the prince’s training. Test your knowledge and complete tasks in ‘The Great Chain of Being’ a game about rising up life’s social ladder. Hunting was a big part of Henry’s life at court, take part in a reimagined hunt with an adult as the prey, and the children as the huntsmen and hounds! Dutch philosopher Erasmus met the young Prince Henry – find out how he thought children should act.
