About Museum in a Box

Museum in a Box® is an exciting outreach program for schools and students in New South Wales. There are over twenty different boxes containing a treasure trove of real museum specimens, casts, artefacts, dioramas, photographs, video and audio tapes, games, books and computer software. The fun activities for children are explained in the Teachers' notes and information about the topic is given on large panels. Each box has a theme and the activities are linked to the school syllabus.

Individual boxes are currently available each school term for set loan periods of three weeks. Museum in a Box® can be sent to and collected from any school within New South Wales. To find out more about individual box subjects and useful links to related information you can select from the link The Boxes.
