The museum was really well laid out and interesting for all ages . The staff and volunteers were welcoming and informative.
Classroom resources
We’ve teamed up with A New Direction to contribute to their History Taster Card which includes a quick activity using a couple of items from our collection. These cards work across all age groups and settings, and can be easily adapted to suit any class. They can be used as ice breakers, starter activities, plenaries, class assembly prompts, ways to start and end the day, or as stand-alone 10–15-minute activities. You may want to use the activities included in the card before or after your visit.
