Little Learners

We're bringing the museum to life with our Little Learners object-based learning program.
Recommended for ages 3-6, this exciting program gives our early years audience the opportunity to get up close with real objects and specimens, act out a story, and have fun while learning through hands-on activities.
Our Little Learners presenter will guide children on an interactive journey to explore objects and themes related to the museum’s collections.
Little Learners is free! Spaces are limited, however no bookings are required. Families are encouraged to arrive at 9:45am for a 10am start.
Please note that on Friday 2 August the museum is holding a special session, Seriously FUN Science Show for Under 5's, hosted by World Science Festival.
