Heya, I’m wondering how long you think this might take to run through with a group of 4 unexperienced players? I’m doing ttrpg workshops at my school and am limiting to 50minutes.

If you have some pre-generated characters ready to go, you could definitely get it in an hour. There's only 1 combat encounter. If the players fight the kobolds, you skip the wolves. If they role played out of combat with kobolds, toss in the wolf attack.
If you run it as a school workshop, be sure to come back here and let me know how it went, I think this is a great tool for something like that.
