About Dinosaurs!

Join our Learning team for 25 minutes of interactive fun where we explore our museum’s dinosaur and fossil collections.

What will my pupils do in the session?

Pupils will: 

  • Learn about the work of palaeontologists 
  • Discover secrets of one of the museum’s most popular residents through our handling collection 
  • Ask questions to deepen understanding. 

We will provide activities for your class to do before and after the session, to continue the learning.
