(Trial in a Box Loan Box)
Victorian Gunpowder Flask
(Poachers & Peelers Loan Box)
We have six exciting loans boxes which can be used to extend and enrich our museum-based learning visits or can be used as an engaging stand-alone resource. Each box contains a mixture of resources: reproduction objects, handling objects from Victorian/Edwardian times, handling gloves, copies of original documents (or their transcripts), information sheets, stories and hands-on activities that get your class or group actively involved in engaging with the past and drawing parallels to the present. They are also great fun!
“We loved the Trial in a Box! We did it in one morning, but there was definitely an opportunity for doing it over a whole week and actually, given the wealth of information and ideas included, we probably should have done that!”
Year 5 Teacher, Saltaire Primary
