Fun free things to do school holidays, visit the Museum!
Remember the days before GPS and Google Maps?
This summer we’re encouraging families who visit the museum to join the ranks of great historical navigators with our free activity Quest of the Navigators.
Using a special map, you can follow our clues to discover what skills, tools and knowledge was used in the pre-digital age, which will help you explore the Museum’s galleries in a fun and interactive way.
Stay the course and you’ll go into the draw to win a special prize pack from the Museum shop!
Collect your map from the information desks in the Grand Foyer of the Museum.
