About
Go old school for this day out and visit the Scotland Street School Museum. Find out how the classrooms of Scotland have changed from the Victorian era to the modern day. Come and see what school would have looked like for your grandparents and great-grandparents.
Take your children away from the digital classrooms and show them chalkboards, wooden seats and writing slates. Your children will love seeing what school was like when you were a child. Just make sure you don’t show them your old school report!
When you visit the different classrooms your little students can try on costumes and school uniforms that would have been worn a hundred years ago. This is a fun and educational museum that both parents and children will enjoy. Pack away your textbooks, lunchbox, notes, an apple for the teacher, and go back to school for the day.
