I have been involved in doing Shanty Workshops for Schools for a number of years at the Swansea Maritime and Industrial Museum. The session is tied in with a project entitled "Ships and Shanties" organised the museum's education department.

We have a capstan and the children really enjoy working it and singing shanties. I deal mainly with Primary Schools and on one or two occasions have gone out to schools.

I once took a class of French exchange students and I was invited to do a workshop at the Captain Cook Festival in Whitby.

So I think that the opportunity is there?

Do you have a museum or some centre in your locality where you can extend your activities?
