Outdoor Learning - Natural Textiles and Dyes
- Focusing on the cotton and woollen textile industries and their importance to Rochdale’s heritage, this session will help you use hands-on activities to inspire children to think about the past.
Weaving, felting and print making are ideal as they can all be easily adapted for children of all ages to do within your school grounds.
