Enrichment, Deeper Understanding,
Inquiry, Thinking and Contentedness are just some of the
possibilities that can be fostered when using the Museum
Learning Centre in conjunction with a school visit to the
Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery. Use the Museum Learning
Centre as a pre-visit meeting place to assist students to
focus on the topic you are studying, and post-visit to develop
concrete understandings experienced during a guided or unguided
exhibition tour, with drawing, writing, conversation and
reflection.
Each month we explore the
Museum and look at its fabulous exhibitions. Our experienced
presenter uses storytelling, craft activities and games
to introduce different areas of the Museum to pre-school
visitors, together with their parents, grandparents or
carers. There’s a different theme each month. Playgroup
is on the third Wednesday of every month and begins at
10.30.
