With a variety of options available, a facilitated program with our Programming Officer will enhance learning outcomes, inspire student inquiry and enrich your visit.
The duration of each program ranges from 45 to 90 minutes, with a maximum of 28 students per session. The Booking Officer will provide a custom itinerary for large groups requiring multiple sessions and groups requiring adjustments for specific needs.
Facilitated programs are bookable Monday through Thursday, Terms 1 to 4. Seasonal facilitated programs linking current travelling exhibitions with curriculum learning run throughout the school term for the duration of the exhibition.
