Book in for our self-guided Museum Explorers program where students use a hands-on pack to investigate how our lives have changed or stayed the same over the last 100 years.
Program overview
In this self-guided program, students use our hands-on Museum Explorers packs to determine how life has changed over the last 100 years. All Museum Explorers packs contain a series of activity cards and a variety of tools and objects to support your group’s exploration of the museum.

- understand the importance of museums and their collections
- use a range of communication skills to express ideas.
