We Visit You

We understand that sometimes it is just not possible to bring your class to the Museum or sometimes, you might need a session to be run in your school.

In these cases we provide an Outreach Service where our staff will bring the Museum into the classroom.

We offer a version of a pre-existing museum sessions – e.g. Life in Ancient Egypt, WW2 Home Front or Toys (see Learning Sessions)

If you would like further details about our Outreach Service, please contact museum@blackburn.gov.uk

Cost

We charge £110 for a half-day and £180 for a full-day.

What the teachers’ said:

“I just wanted to thank you for your great presentation to Year 6 regarding the Victorians and poo. The children loved it and could recall lots of what you said. I also did a follow up lesson and found pictures of tippler and privy toilets, moving on to the hard life as a house maid. Hope you can join us next year and inspire another bunch! Warm regards” – Katherine, St Francis Primary School

“Just wanted to say thank you again for helping at the Science Day, the children all loved looking at the beetles etc and have been talking about them all day today!” – Catherine, St Barnabas Primary School
