Hey kids! YOU READY?!

I’m Tarran — your very own time-travelling guide!

Welcome to Greenhill Gardens, where we’re gonna BLAST through time to discover real stories — from heroes and heartbreak to creepy graveyards and crazy inventions!

You’ve got a Time Traveller Passport, right? If not, pause this and go grab one from my friends at Matthew’s House. You’ll need it!

At each stop, I’ll show you something amazing from the past — and you’ll draw a stamp including the item to show you were there. Draw all 10 stamps, and you can collect your honorary badge and become a Greenhill Time Travel MASTER — just like me!

So lace up those shoes, hold onto your hats, and open your imagination.

On the count of three, let’s jump into our time machine!

1… 2… 3… WHOOSH!!!

WHOOSH! Welcome to the very beginning of Greenhill!
Wanna know why it’s called Greenhill? Because… it’s a green… hill! 😄

A long, long time ago — almost 1,000 years back — this was just a grassy hill outside the walls of Swansea. There was a small chapel nearby, and the land was looked after by church people who liked it quiet. But over time, more and more people started arriving, looking for places to live and work.

The hill began to fill with little houses, chapels, and busy streets. Miners, factory workers, shopkeepers, musicians, and families all made Greenhill their home.

It wasn’t fancy — the houses were close together, the markets were noisy, and the factories were smelly — but it was full of life and laughter. Even though life could be hard, the people here were strong, caring, and brave.

💬 STAMP IDEA: Draw a little house on a hill with smoke curling from the chimney — that’s how Greenhill began!

Time to spin the dials! We’re heading into a story of kindness, soup, and some serious superhero energy…
