It’s also home to The Rocks Discovery Museum, a free group-friendly museum which has four permanent interactive exhibitions with touch screens and artefacts kids can touch. The museum also hosts a range of educational school holiday activities.
The Rocks is also home to Sydney Learning Adventures (SLA), a leading provider of school excursions and education programs, with a focus on Aboriginal and archaeology programs.
Our programs have been been developed in consultation with academic educators and practising classroom teachers. Our curriculum-linked, outcomes-focused approach aims to provide engaging, interactive, multi-layered learning experiences for all students. The programs are facilitated by our team of dynamic interpretive guides and cater to all stages and types of learners, from kindergarten to Year 12.
Programs include a walking tour of The Rocks and six unique archaeology programs at The Big Dig Archaeology Education Centre in The Rocks.
