We invite you and your class to explore our wonderfully rich collections from around the world. Discover enchanting tales and intriguing facts. Handle rare artefacts and delve into documents, some of which are thousands of years old. Our exciting workshops for primary schools are activity packed, hands-on and designed to complement your class topics and the Curriculum for Excellence. workshops are free and run on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at 10am and 12.30pm for 1 hour 45 minutes. The schools programme was recently featured in the Times Educational Supplement.
Take advantage of our Experience Days to combine a workshop at King’s Museum with one at the Special Collections Centre. The workshops complement each other to enrich and deepen children’s learning. For more information about workshops and Experience Days, download the Primary Schools Programme.

Quotes from teachers
A huge thank you for a most fantastic workshop. Everything was so well organised and very slick. The children became engaged with the activities and thoroughly enjoyed them all, most impressed with this. Will recommend others to visit. Thank you so much for a fantastic learning experience.

A fantastic opportunity to handle real Victorian artefacts, which we don't have in school. P6 teacher
I really enjoyed the session and the children were actively part of it which was fab. P3/4 teacher
The session was excellent. The children were able to share previous knowledge and also learned many new facts in an enjoyable way. I would recommend this as a trip to other schools. P2/3 teacher
