Organised by Lou


Join us for a visit to Blenheim Palace, one of England’s largest stately homes, set in 2000 acres of landscaped parkland.  It is also the birthplace of Winston Churchill, a World Heritage Site and an “on location” set to many films and TV productions.

There is choice of two tours:

World War I Tour aged approx 5-11yrs (Primary)

“This tour of the Palace gives schools an insight into how the family, servants, Estate workers and parts of the Palace itself all played their part in the war.”

(For those concerned about suitability for younger children – There is some mention of the front lines and trenches, however, the focus is on Blenheim’s role in the war)

Media Studies Tour for children aged 12-16yrs (Secondary) (this is at GCSE level and participants will need to be working at that kind of level but not necessarily doing Media Studies).

This is all about the films and TV programmes that have been filmed at Blenheim and how the palace copes with the “invasion of Hollywood”

Please ensure you choose the right option.

Adults may accompany their children – but must please remember to remain quiet during the tour/talk, as background noise/chat is disruptive for both the children and the guides.

Afterwards, your ticket may be converted to an annual pass at no extra charge, if you wish.

Prices & Booking
Please book using the form below.
Children’s Tour for children aged approx 5-11yrs £7.70 (if you pay via by personal PayPal transfer or £8.17 if you pay via the website)
Media Studies Tour for children aged 12-16yrs £7.70  (if you pay via by personal PayPal transfer or £8.17 if you pay via the website)
Adults £14.80  (if you pay via by personal PayPal transfer or £15.52 if you pay via the website)

You may also make a personal PayPal payment via www.paypal.me/eventseducationista (please DON’T tick the “paying for goods or services” box)

(If paying by personal PayPal payment, OPT TO PAY OFFLINE, below, and please put your names and what you are paying for on your personal PayPal payment)

If you have successfully sent your booking, a little green message to that effect will appear at the bottom of the page and you’ll get an email from the website.
You’ll receive another email, when your booking is confirmed.

(If you already have an annual pass but wish to join the tour/talks, please book in the normal way, below,  don’t pay BUT you must add a note to say you hold an annual pass, (in the “Additional Information” box ABOVE where it says “Send your booking” in red) to say you already have an annual pass, otherwise your places won’t be confirmed.

If you have an annual pass but don’t wish to join the tours, there is no need to book, but obviously, you can’t join the tours as they lay on guides based on the numbers pre-booked for the tours)

There will be no refunds for cancellation or non-attendance.

(Also, I don’t need to know adult’s ages!)

(There is unlikely to be free adult place refunds for this trip – because the free places cannot be converted to annual passes)

This Website

This website is purely a booking website. Any home-educator is welcome to use it for free, as long as the event is not-for-profit for them personally.

Adult spaces/tickets:
Please put “adult” in the age box. (Adult ages are not required)

Children’s ages are asked for to enable the organiser to pass on the age-range to the venue/workshop leader. Also, in the case of there being free teacher/adult spaces, these are normally calculated on the child/ren’s age.

Educationista Foundation

We were successful in registering "Educationista Foundation" as a CIO with the Charity Commission.

We'd like to invite any home-educator who is interested in joining in activities or getting involved in the charity itself, to join the facebook group for it, which is here:
facebook.com/groups/EducationistaFoundation.

However, the charity is separate from this website.
(It just uses this website for bookings for ease and because it time-stamps the bookings, which may be necessary for over-subscribed events)

Payments for Events

Payment for events must be made directly to the organiser.
Their PayPal/payment details will be detailed on the event.
If the organiser requests a bank payment (this will be clear on the event itself), then you may request them by email if they are not already known to you.

You are NOT be able to pay via the website PayPal as some of you may have done previously – this is because this attracts PayPal fees which cannot be passed on (following legislation that comes into effect from January 2018).

Your space(s) are not confirmed until payment has been received.

Cancellations/Non-attendance & Refunds

Most venues and attractions need to booked and paid in advance.
Therefore, unfortunately refunds are not normally possible unless your space(s) can be filled.
If you are unable to attend for whatever reason, please let the organiser know as soon as possible. They may they have a reserve/waiting list.
