The Make & Break Project moves across Wales!


Love this idea, start them young .............


The ‘Make and Break’ project has spread across Wales! Come and see a school perform at a burial chamber near you this summer!

It will be a chance for the younger generation to imagine what it was like to be a Neolithic tomb builder, re-creating a Neolithic ritual of their own at the site… Join us!

People living during the Neolithic
period around 6000 years ago, are
known to have deliberately broken,
and given away their most treasured
possessions. Join us at a burial
chamber near you to find out
more, and watch as school children
recreate a ritual — performing
their own interpretation of a
Neolithic ceremony.

Come and watch:
