We love inspiring young minds, and offer a variety of teacher resources developed to support excursions offered at the museum.

These resources have been designed for you to use in the classroom to complement your student’s visit to the museum and extend their learning experience.

Simply choose the information and activities that are appropriate to your students and area of study.

Tailored to the History curriculum needs of Year Three and Year Five, A Voyage into the Past is loaded with teaching resources, pre and post visit activities, as well as guided activities for the visit itself.

Teachers are free to pick and choose amongst these to create a unique learning program that best suits the needs of their students.

A Voyage into the Past Learning Program

A Voyage into the Past is a rich, flexible program that can be tailored to your student's needs and interests - you need never explore the Maritime Museum of Tasmania the same way twice.

Tailored to the History Curriculum needs of Years Three and Five, A Voyage into the Past makes your students explorers of their Maritime Museum.

A rich selection of pre-visit activities equip your learners with questions like how places, people and technology change over time, and concepts like primary sources and significance.

During their visit they are guided by a set of activity cards, with more questions and puzzles to solve, with opportunities to explore the waterfront as well. Back at school your students can put together everything they have learned.
