Storytelling sessions for families:
Just how much gold is in the Bank of England vaults? Has any of it ever been stolen?
Join our resident storyteller for a free interactive storytelling session that explores different aspects of the Bank’s work and history – some of which might just surprise you!
Designed for children aged 7 to 11, the sessions combine storytelling, drama and role-play to bring different aspects of the Bank’s history to life.
Gold vault break-in
Deep beneath the Bank of England there is a vault full of gold. Impenetrable they say…no gold has ever been stolen… but does that mean that no one has ever broken in?
This Easter half-term, join us for the tale of a gold vault break-in at the Bank of England. Could it be true, or is it a work of fiction… we’ll let you decide.
