Our loan kits can be used for cross-curricular work within your school and be a topic of discussion for all age groups!

There is a wide selection to choose from.

The booking period is two weeks unless by arrangement. 

The subject of the loan kits reflect our collections.

Loan kits can be borrowed by any Perth and Kinross Council school or community group in Perth and Kinross.  

This service is free.

All kits have to be collected from and returned to Perth Museum by the borrower. If a kit is not picked up within two days of the agreed collection date the loan will be withdrawn and offered to the next school on the list.

Kits are inspected for damage when they are returned. Repair and replacement costs are charged to the borrowing school. Choose from the list below.
