These special events are a great opportunity for Home Educator families to visit the museum at a quieter time and to take part in some of our school programmes and other activities.
Please note the museum is open as usual but we do restrict general public tickets and there will be no school or group bookings on this day.
As this special event is for Home Educator families, the main target age group is children of primary school age (5 - 11yrs) and the additional activities available on the day will be designed for this age group.
BOOKINGS WILL CLOSE AT 4PM ON FRIDAY 6TH MAY 2022 (or earlier if capacity is reached)
