Conveniently located within Melbourne’s Chinatown, we have over 20 years’ experience in museum education. Our program has been designed by teachers with a strong focus on curriculum and contemporary teaching methodologies. It has links with the Victorian Curriculum and the Australian Curriculum across a wide range of learning areas including Humanities, Languages (Chinese), The Arts and English. 

The Chinese Museum is a child safe organisation. Download our Statement of Commitment to Child Safety Standards.

Programs, exhibitions and special events for schools are announced throughout the year. Subscribe to our Education E-News for up to date information.
