School Visits

We look forward to welcoming your group to the Memorial.

Bookings are essential for all visiting school groups.

Health and safety is top priority for the Memorial, and social distancing and hygiene guidelines remain in place. To safely manage school visits we have made necessary changes to school bookings, including removing teacher-guided time in the galleries and closing the Discovery Zone. 

Memorial development project

The Memorial is undergoing major development changes which may affect capacity for Education bookings and school visitors. To manage this impact the length of school visits may be limited onsite. Availability will be visible when booking online. If you require assistance with planning your visit please contact school.bookings@awm.gov.au
