Cliffe Castle Museum

Museum Explorer

Pupils will meet a Victorian Explorer and discover some of the fascinating world objects in the museum. In this immersive workshop, pupils will have to work and act like explorers: getting ready for their journey, recording their findings, using maps and their sense of adventure to find their own special treasures from across the collections of the museum.

An ideal workshop for a first visit to a museum for EYFS
