Primary School Excursions at the Museum

Primary School Student Programs

We support your classroom teaching by bringing primary school students face-to-face with history and culture. Our programs help expand students’ content knowledge,  empowering them to connect more deeply with the topic they are studying – in a way that is always safe and age-appropriate.

A learning experience that can’t be replicated in the classroom

We offer 2-hour and 3-hour excursions that include talks from Holocaust survivors, a guided tour of the Museum and curriculum-linked workshops with expert educators covering a range of topics including migration, human rights, Judaism and the Holocaust.

 

“If you haven’t taken your students to the Sydney Jewish Museum, you haven’t prepared them for life”
Director of Faith and Mission at St Vincent’s College, Potts Point

Starting next year, the Sydney Jewish Museum is embarking on a redevelopment project, which will enable us to significantly expand the exhibitions and programs we deliver, and to welcome many more visitors, teachers and school groups. From 2025, we will continue to deliver our quality, impactful and curriculum-linked educational programs at the Museum for school groups. We will offer program bookings between 9.45am and 1pm. Where possible, we will try to be as flexible as possible to accommodate programs outside of these times. We will also be offering hybrid online and in-museum programs to help meet your needs.
