What's on for Primary Schools

As the final days of the school year approach, we’d like to wish all teachers and students a joyful and well-deserved summer break. In these final days of term, we still have a number of engaging tours and hands-on workshops available for primary classes.

Don’t forget, our wide range of online resources remains accessible both now and throughout the summer, perfect for end-of-year activities or creative inspiration during the holidays!

Schools can visit three Museum sites in Dublin and Mayo this year. Click on a location below to see What's on for Primary Schools at each Museum.  

The National Museum of Ireland located at Merrion Street, also known as the 'Dead Zoo', closed on 2 September 2024, so a school visit is not possible at this location. However, teachers can still book a virtual session for your school and explore the fascinating Natural History Collections through a range of classroom activities and resources.
