We are pleased to launch our new KS2 Loans Boxes, which will help you bring the Early Medieval Period to life in the classroom.
Initially, we will have boxes focusing upon ‘Britain’s Settlement by the Anglo-Saxons: Exploring Anglo-Saxon Britain’. And we will add boxes focusing upon other elements of Early Medieval Life and History in the near future.
How to book a loans box:
Our Loans Boxes are available for schools to book for two weeks at a charge of £50.
The Loans Box can be collected from the Jarrow Hall Museum Reception Desk – upon booking you will be allocated a collection date.
We will give you a return date for the Loans Box, this is usually two weeks after the collection date unless you have requested a different date. There may be a small charge for late returns.
If you are concerned that you cannot return the Loans Box on-time, please do get in-touch and we will do our best to help you.
We recommend arranging to collect the Loans Box over a weekend to ensure that you have it for two school weeks.
