With the reopening of the Maritime Experiential Museum, we are rolling out new educational programmes that complement the Ministry of Education’s Social Studies (Primary) syllabus and History syllabus. Students will gain a better appreciation of social, historical and cultural issues that they are inquiring into from an authentic Field-based Learning experience at the museum.
