Our SEARCH programme is a hands-on experience which brings learning to life for schools, groups, families and the local community by providing exciting encounters with real museum collections.
SEARCH is a unique programme full of artefacts, objects and specimens. We offer a very flexible resource, delivering real and relevant learning sessions for all age groups using our well-equipped learning spaces. SEARCH is not just about science and history. We have a wealth of resources that inspire creativity, art and literacy to encourage the development of skills and knowledge in all topics.
All sessions at SEARCH need to be pre-booked. If you would like to book for your school or group, please complete an enquiry form which can be found here: https://hampshireculturaltrust.typeform.com/to/rDeFybSe
Our facilitator-led, topic-based sessions for schools are designed to enrich and enhance children’s learning and thinking skills across the curriculum using real artefacts and specimens.
We offer a range of two-hour workshops, tailored to meet your requirements, including complementary pre-visit meetings and the use of indoor areas for lunch.
Workshops with SEARCH at Gosport cost £120 per session.
Alternatively, you can use our educational loans boxes to develop your own bespoke projects, or provide learning hooks and exciting, meaningful outcomes for challenge-based work.
