School Loan Kits - Nature
Last updated | 15/02/2011
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 the area.
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withdrawn and offered to the next school on the list.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.
Contact Barbara for details and further information
at museum@pkc.gov.uk
or call 01738 632488.
Early booking is advisable due to the demand on our
kits.
