excellent venue for Hoppings school (June 2024 - Secondary School)




Worried that the children may run out of things to do. Ended up trying to squeeze everything in. Children all commented on how much they liked the museum. (June 2024)

The planetarium is worthwhile. Children ate lunch on the floor. The teacher-led resources are quite cumbersome and it was busy in the museum to make full use. A workshop may have been better. (December 2023 - Primary School)

The museum were well organised and supportive of our school trip. The resources they provided for us were both relevant and interesting to the children. (October 2018 - Primary School)




Lovely museum, but possibly not enough to do. (September 2018 - Primary School)




I though the current display was very bizarre and disappointing. Nothing seemed related - hope the old displays are revealed soon. (August 2018 - Primary School & Secondary School)

Enjoyable experience for the pupils and able to use their own initiative and fact finding in their own way (July 2018 - Secondary School)
