Help and support for teachers!
Need a bit more support when it comes to your history topic?
Unsure how you can use a Discovery Box in the classroom?
Want to find out more about what the Museum does?
Contact our Vicky, our Learning Officer!
We can schedule a 1:1 chat, either online or in person at the Museum (where we can provide tea and cake!)
We can offer training sessions for your team at the Museum, your school, or online, where we go through local case studies or how to handle objects in the Discovery Boxes.
We also offer open evenings at the Museum where you can just come and have a look around and a chat!
Vicky’s office hours are 1pm to 3pm, Tuesday to Friday – she is usually delivering workshops in the morning.

Please note:
– Workshops often take place in our temporary exhibition space. Please check our public Google Calendar or call the Museum on 020 8332 1141 to see if a workshop is taking place when you plan to visit that may limit your access to the exhibition.
– We occasionally have to close at short notice due to volunteer illness. Please check here or our public Google Calendar for latest news and updates.
– At present there is no step free access from street level to the Ground Floor of the Old Town Hall whilst we wait for Richmond Council to repair the lift at the Disabled Entrance. We apologise for the inconvenience this causes whilst the Council carries out these repairs.
