Calling all young Egyptologists! Join us at the Chau Chak Wing Museum for a day of archaeology where you will learn everything you've ever wanted to know about Ancient Egypt. 

Learn about the Egyptian gods and goddesses, mummification processes and explore the museum’s collection of Egyptian antiquities. Plus, you’ll get to handle genuine ancient artefacts and learn about hieroglyphs.

In this program we will meet Rameses II, Tutankhamun and Cleopatra, as well as other ancient Egyptian figures.

Suitable for 8-13 year olds. Children to be dropped off at the museum foyer.

Please bring your own bag with your own morning tea and lunch, plus a water bottle.
