Students will have an exclusive opportunity to learn about Australia from the Museum’s trained guides. On one of our guided tours your students will enjoy a presentation tailored to their needs. Choose one of the tour themes below, and let your guide know the English language level of your students and the topics or themes you would like focused on. Tours run for approximately 1 hour. Students will have a unique experience handling museum artefacts and specimens. They will have fantastic opportunities to hold boomerangs or pat a koala. While on tour, students will be able to get up close to some of the Museum’s live specimens too.
