Learning

We are currently offering self-led visits only. Please contact us to book a visit: cardiffstory@cardiff.gov.uk

Museum of Cardiff offers learners of any age an immersive, empowering and interactive learning experience.

We offer self-led and facilitated activities for primary schools, secondary schools and lifelong learners, which can be easily tailored to your new curriculum concept-based learning, projects and learning needs.

We can offer our ‘Hands on History’ object handling sessions as part of a visit to the museum. These interactive, 15 minute sessions are facilitated by members of the museum team.

A blended learning resource for teachers.

We have three learning packs designed for primary school age children. Each pack looks at the theme of ‘Life as a child’ through different periods in history.

Made to complement the New Curriculum for Wales, the packs use pictures, stories and museum objects to offer a blended learning experience. Teachers have the option of either self-led or museum-led.
